Partners

Our heart is to work in partnership wherever and whenever we can

We recognise that we can't do everything ourselves. In Luke 5, when there were too many fish for one boat, Jesus' disciples called over their partners, to help them with the task they set out to achieve.

In order to see our goals and vision achieved, we partner with some great organisations, please take time to have a look at them below:

    CAP support people that are struggling to climb out of the grip of debt. We support one of their debt centres which aims to bring relief to people who are struggling with their finances. It's great to partner with Mosaic Church in this ministry.

    Kidz Klub works around the city of Leeds to share God's love and message with the most vulnerable unreached children, their families and communities. They run their central Klub from BCC on Monday evenings.

    Women Arise run ESOL and wellbeing classes that are a vital tool in helping those new to the UK settle and integrate into our society. We love to host these classes and partner with Women Arise to help the ladies learn English!
