The Community Partnership and Funding Initiative began in September 2001. The aim of the initiative is to support parishes with any work or activities carried out with the wider community.
Our Community Partnership and Funding Team can help explore ways of identifying local needs, developing a project that will help meet that need, finding the most appropriate partners to work with and helping the parish to source the funding.
It is important that we work in partnership with others. It's rewarding, it helps with the sharing of skills, resources and funding. We can achieve so much more working with others than we ever can on our own.
This is a toolkit to help and direct you when looking for ways to increase use of your church building.
