Empowering Change Fund Grants
Baptist Buildings CIO usually provide loans for churches to renovate and upgrade their buildings or purchase new buildings. However, they do also award grants for certain church projects too including improving disabled access and upgrade work to tired church kitchens. We thought we would pass on this information to our churches – could your church benefit from one of these grants? Please contact Baptist Buildings directly for further information.

Neil has been a fantastic part of the BUS staff team this past year and we wish him well for the future as he leaves us. We invited Neil to reflect on what has been a year like no other!
