Before you start, make sure you have access credentials for the Church of England CMS API. You will
need a valid `API_ID` and `API_KEY`. See https://cmsapi.cofeportal.org/security for more
information about this.

Most of the endpoints also require a `diocese_id`. You should be supplied with this when you
receive your access credentials.
