The Bishop of London’s Mission Fund encourages and supports mission work throughout the Diocese of London, particularly community based projects with a particular bias to serving the poor and vulnerable, often reaching “beyond the walls of the church” to fund projects in areas of deprivation. Since 2004, over one hundred projects have received support with grants totaling £3.8M. The projects supported include children, youth and family workers, youth theatre groups, community cafes, drop-in centres and environmental projects and 38 of these projects were in 25% of the most deprived areas in England (2010 Index of Multiple Deprivation). Throughout the Diocese of London there is a growing need to support social projects in deprived areas as council and government funding is withdrawn. The Diocese of London is uniquely equipped for this role, as through its 450 parishes, the Diocese is present in every community, and can really make a difference to the communities it serves. The increasing number of projects applying for funding from the Bishop of London's Mission Fund means that additional funds are needed to respond to the needs of communities North of the Thames. Please help us to help those in need by donating to the Bishop of London's Mission Fund.
