Times are hard for people and communities and we help churches, other faith groups, charities and civic society to improve lives and empower community-building. We were formed in 2014, a Joint Venture between the Diocese of Lichfield and the Church Urban Fund Together Network. Our work takes an Asset Based Approach in four main areas: 1) Social and Financial Inclusion 2) Health And Wellbeing 3) Community Cohesion 4) Developing Work Our key values are: Listening: This is the most import place to start. Enabling people to be heard is at the heart of our work. We believe that residents have to best ideas in knowledge to enable their communities to flourish. Partnership: This is key to everyone thriving and flourishing, as no one person or organisation has all the answers and resources. Celebrating: Excellent things are happening in communities and we can be a voice to magnify this! Empowering: People want to be part of making the change happen, so we can provide training and encouragement, advice and support to encourage this to happen!
