Our Mission Partners are not simply projects we support, they are relationships we care for; shaped by prayer, generosity, accountability, and long-term commitment. As a church family, we focus our energy intentionally. Some partnerships are recognised as Primary Mission Partners, where we share deeper connection and regular support. Others are Secondary Partners or Mission Contacts, whom we stand with through prayer, encouragement, and giving.
Together, these relationships express something central to our life as a church; mission is not about doing more, it is about walking faithfully alongside others and trusting God with the outcomes.​

Safe Families and Home for Good hope for a society where no family feels alone, and every child has a home where they can flourish. We believe the Church is central to this vision. We empower families, equip churches, and influence systemic change.
Our Safe Families programme supports isolated, overwhelmed families through local volunteers, helping them build stable homes and strong community connections. And Home for Good ensures that when, sadly, children come into care, there is a home for every child who needs one.
