The Churches’ Trust is an interdenominational organisation established by the leaders of Christian churches to respond to deprivation in the area. The Churches’ Trust supports local people with issues that impact on their family and community life, respecting their dignity at all times. Our supports include bespoke services, youth development programmes, community and interfaith education and social support services.
The Churches Trust work is characterised by two main facets: on the one hand addressing deprivation and social injustice, working with people at the margins of society; and on the other hand, churches standing together with a united voice in an area plagued with the legacy of division through the troubles in Northern Ireland, aiming to create a shared and better future for all. Hence,
Churches Standing Together With Those in Need
Churches Trust has five long-term strategic priorities which will shape the work of the organisation.
2. Improve community relations by delivering innovative, challenging projects to reduce division and sectarianism, and promote cohesion in the north west
3. Gain recognition for the critical work of the organisation and its funders across the island;
4. Grow and sustain the organisation;
5. Empower staff and Board to deliver for and with communities.
