The Diocese of the United Kingdom is a diocese of the Anglican Catholic Church (ACC), encompassing the entire area of the United Kingdom. It is one of the dioceses of the Original Province of the Anglican Catholic Church, and is not a part of the Anglican Communion. It is separate from the Free Church of England, the Anglican Ordinariate, the Society of St Wilfred and St Hilda, and the Church of England (Continuing). The Diocese was formed, like the rest of the ACC, in response to the alteration to the sacraments by the Church of England.[1][2]

The Diocese of the United Kingdom is a Continuing Anglican church which arose from the Congress of St. Louis in 1977. It was established in 1992 as the Missionary Diocese of England and Wales.[3]
