      Since the arrival of the Daughters of Divine Charity in England in 1914 their main apostolate has been in education. At present there is a school in Swaffham a Nursery in Chesterfield and in Hunstanton small care home. In the Parishes where our Convents are situated many of the Sisters are Eucharistic ministers, visit the sick, elderly and housebound and undertake other Christian good works.

Our Mission throughout the world
As an International Religious Congregation we are present in 17 countries world wide.
From its 1868 foundation in Austria the Congregation of the Daughters of Divine Charity spread quickly, first to many European countries and later to North and South America. In 1992 and 1998 respectively the Polish Province established missions in Bolivia and the Ukraine. As soon as Albania was freed after 40 years of Communism the Divine Providence Province established a mission there in 1992.
Our Mission in Uganda An international community went to Rushooka, Uganda in October 1998 following an invitation to help in the mission to the people of God in that area.
