Diocese of Sheffield | Branding Guidelines

Introduction to the BrandingConsistency in how the Diocese of Sheffield presents itself is very important. All the elements of our identity need to be combined correctly to create maximum impact and communicate effectively a clear and consistent message.

Why use these guidelines?The Diocese of Sheffield must present itself in a way that makes it distinctive and memorable. The branding guidelines in this document set out how this might be achieved. By working together and following a common style, we can create a brand that has meaning and is instantly recognisable across the diocese.

These guidelines have been produced for use by both The Diocese of Sheffield and any partner organisations. They can be used on a variety of material such as:

• Websites• Postal and e-mail campaigns• Leaflets/Flyers• Press and PR campaigns• Stationery (eg letterheads)• Parish newsletters/magazines• Posters

The Diocese of Sheffield was formed in 1914 and is in the Northern Province of York. It covers Sheffield, Rotherham and Doncaster and the subsidiary towns and villages of those areas. The Diocesan Board of Finance was formed to manage the financial affairs and hold the assets of the Diocese. It is a company limited by guarantee and registered in England and also a registered charity.

About the Diocese

Diocesan Vision & StrategyOur ongoing vision since 2011 remains the same, that is that:The Diocese of Sheffield is called to grow a sustainable network of Christ-like, lively and

diverse Christian communities in every place which are effective in making disciples and in seeking to transform our society and God’s world.

In 2018, we launched our strategy, which runs alongside the vision. The 2018 Strategy falls under three areas: Renewed, Released, Rejuvenated.

The Diocesan logo is the primary branding element. When used correctly it should look professional and be instantly recognisable.

The Diocese of Sheffield Logo

The whole logo is coloured in ‘Diocesan Purple’ (available from the colour palette on page 8) apart from the words ‘Renewed’, ‘Released’ and ‘Rejuvenated’ which are coloured in ‘Diocesan Purple’.

The size and position of all elements of the logo is fixed and should never be altered or re-created.

Minimum size

The logo has no maximum size restriction, but it is recommended that for quality of

reproduction and readability it must never be used smaller than 55mm in width.55mm

The logo consists of the words ‘The Diocese of Sheffield’ written above the words ‘Renewed’, ‘Released’ and ‘Rejuvenated’. The standard Church of England logo is on the left of the text.

To ensure the visual impact the logotype requires a minimum area of surrounding clear space in which other type, images and logos cannot appear. This is known as the exclusion zone.

Whenever possible, the full colour logo should be used, however there are exceptions, such as when the background makes any of the text difficult to read, when other versions may be used.

There is a separate logo used for the “Renewed, Released, Rejuvenated” strategy. Like the Diocese of Sheffield logo, the full colour logo should be used whenever possible, but others are available when this isn’t the case.

The Diocesan Coat of Arms is only used at the discretion of the Diocesan Bishop and the Diocese of Sheffield. It does not replace the diocesan logo. When displayed with the mitre above the shield, it represents the Diocesan Bishop and nothing else. To represent the Diocese of Sheffield it should be used without the mitre and lappets/fringes. Either version of the coat of arms should only be used with the permission of the Diocesan Bishop and the Diocesan Communications department.
