If you’ve got a brilliant project or initiative that’s helping local communities within the United Kingdom respond to current challenges, we need to be working together!

If you want to help churches support those in need in their communities, you’ve come to the right place!

There are two ways we help local UK churches impact their communities – by developing Christian social action projects and supporting individual church leaders and volunteers. Together this is a powerful combination that brings transformation to the very heart of communities across the country.

Come and explore how we can support you.

Our Values

Jesus Centered

We look to Jesus as our inspiration and our guide. So, we start and end every meeting in prayer and take time to reflect and seek God as a team.

Helpful and Practical

Everything we do is focused on practically supporting churches and Christian Social Franchises. We always ask ourselves, “what difference will this make at grass-roots level?”

Creative and Expert

We work together as a diverse team to pool our resources, share our expertise and challenge ourselves to do things better.

Connecting People

We want to share what we’re doing with as many people as possible. We also acknowledge others who are doing excellent work to support churches and seek to partner with them to maximise our impact.
