CofE scoops awards for digital transformation

Going up against large organisations such as Warner Brothers, Diageo and Nationwide, it picked up five prizes including best app, best website and best use of social media.

It comes after the Church made a big investment into its work online.

Based out of Church House, the digital team oversees the Church's presence online and uses Christian festivals to reach out to the country.

Speaking to Premier, the Church of England's head of digital, Adrian Harris said: "We're absolutely thrilled to have won five awards.

"They recognise the passion and hard work of many colleagues across the Church over the last two years.

"It's wonderful to see the way that dioceses and local churches are engaging in digital for the opportunities it brings to grow people's faith, bring people to faith and encourage church attendance."

Announcing the Church as the 'best in-house digital team of the year', organisers said: "The Church has been recognised for its efforts over the past few years in building a digital function where once there was none.

"The church is now digitally savvy and explores new technologies - like Amazon's Alexa voice assistant - with ease."

A Monthly Gift Of $11 Makes A World Of Difference

In a world of fake news there’s never been a greater need for quality Christian journalism. Premier’s mission is to provide the Church with the most up to date and relevant news, told from a Christian perspective. But we can’t do it without you.

Unlike many websites we haven't put up a paywall — we want to keep our journalism free at the point of need and as open as we can. Premier’s news output takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. No one in the USA is sharing news like we are across radio, magazines and online so please help us to continue that today.

For a monthly gift of $11 or more we’d also be able to send you a free copy of the brand new Premier Bible, a wonderful Anglicised version of the NLT packed with exclusive bonus content, reading plan and resources to help you get the most out of scripture.

Your monthly support will make a world of difference. Thank you.
