"The Roman Catholic Diocese of Shrewsbury serves the population of New Cheshire, Shropshire, Telford and Wrekin with parts of Derbyshire, Halton, Merseyside, Greater Manchester and Warrington."[1] Administratively the Diocese is part of the Archdiocese province of Birmingham.

The Shrewsbury Diocesan Pilgrimage to Lourdes is an annual undertaking for over 1000 pilgrims from across the Diocese to the shrine town of Lourdes in Southern France. Traditionally the pilgrimage takes place during the last week of July.
