The archdiocese is responsible for the pastoral care of its parishes, education, and various social justice initiatives. It plays a vital role in the religious and cultural identity of Catholics in Scotland, promoting faith, community engagement, and support for the marginalized. The current archbishop leads and represents the archdiocese within the wider Catholic Church and society.
