What is Faith to Engage

Faith to Engage is a project which works to strengthen the voice of churches and faith groups in policy-making across the nine English regions. Funded by the National Lottery’s Big Lottery Fund, it is delivered nationally by leading Christian social action movement Faithworks in collaboration with nine regional partners.

What will Faith to Engage achieve

Faith to Engage supports all faith groups to work together and with others, to make purposeful partnerships, to share information and to use their knowledge and practical experience of serving their communities to influence regional decision making.

Faith to Engage aims to achieve the following:

  1. Increased participation by the faith sector in regional policy making. 
  2. More effective and inclusive consultation and representation mechanism for the faith sector in each region. 
  3. More service delivery partnerships. 
  4. More cross-sectorial and interfaith networking and partnerships. 
  5. More faith-based organisations accessing support from non faith-based infrastructure agencies.   
  6. Increased understanding by regional voluntary sector consortia and government of the distinctives of faith based service delivery.
