Lindisfarne College of Theology (LCT) is a learning community for the Church in the North East. We are an Anglican college preparing people for Christian ministry across the whole breadth of the Church of England.

We take our name from the Holy Island of Lindisfarne, with its rich history of Christian spirituality – but we are not based on the island itself.

We work across Durham and Newcastle Dioceses. Weekly teaching is in the Church of England centres just outside Durham (Cuthbert House) and in North Shields (Church House). Some weekends we teach in other venues around the area.

Use this website to find out all about who we are, what we do, and how we live and work together.

I hope you will enjoy exploring what we have to offer.

Revd Dr Richard Briggs
Principal, Lindisfarne College of Theology

The staff have significant skills and experience in working with those from a wide variety of theological traditions, and educational backgrounds. The College works closely with local dioceses, and is responsive to their training needs and requests. You will find a learning community which has a diverse and rich ecology of people learning together as Christian disciples for lay and ordained ministries. "
