New Deal Funding to Amplify Community Voices

We have received funding alongside nine Together Network Projects, as part of funding from Faith New Deal within the Department of Levelling Up Housing and Communities, to facilitate conversations and amplify voices of those in our communities.

It's going to be based in Places of Welcome across Nottinghamshire.

This is an opportunity for local groups to look at the resources within their communities and share with leaders of their communities suggestions for change.

One of the outcomes of this will be to establish principles for the government's wider relationship with faith groups.

As Faith Minister Paul Scully said: “We saw the instrumental role that faith organisations played in supporting vulnerable people during the pandemic. Working closely with local partners, councils and government, they supported communities where they need it most.

“This pilot scheme will build on that vital work, so that faith organisations and their partners can continue to support communities as they recover."
