Firth Park Methodist Church
Community Development
Help us to provide a permanent soft play facility as part of the redevelopment of the large worship space within the church.
About this cause
Being in the inner city, in a known area of deprivation, we seek to provide a sense of caring for all people, provide spiritual and pastoral support for all who need and seek it, provide welcoming premises for all ages within the community (Boys' Brigades, Youth Groups, Ladies groups, Food Bank, weekly lunch at reasonable cost, drama group, SOAR Social Cafe, Flower arranging), create an atmosphere in which all who come can experience unconditional love, continue to develop the youth and community programme and administer our human and financial resources effectively. The Church is driven by an understanding that healthy cohesion, giving life enhancing opportunities, is vital in a heavily populated, ever changing multi-cultural community - we promote equality and interfaith working.
How this cause brings people in the community together
Families socialising, learning from and supporting each other. Life and social skills shared, aiding carers and parents to believe in themselves to escape social isolation. Encouragement and promotion of health and well-being. Access to affordable 'play' to encourage children to interact and learn from each other. Help community to work together, inspiring to build a better future for all.
