Latest News NCT Church Challenges Survey The National Churches Trust (NCT), a major grant funder for places of worship, has launched a survey to better understand the challenges that churches face, and to highlight the vital work which our churches do. This survey has the support of denominations, faith, and heritage groups across the country and we wish to encourage all churches throughout the Archdiocese of Birmingham to take part. Your response will provide essential evidence to build a clearer picture – to tell a stronger, more informed story about your church, and others like it, so that NCT can try to address some of the biggest challenges facing churches and help ensure their future. It’s really important that Catholic churches respond to this survey. Indeed the more of our churches which participate, the better. If we can show strong support for this survey, it may possibly also strengthen our case for grant funding support in the future. Therefore, the more churches that take part, the more impactful it will be. The survey is live until Sunday 13 July, and can be accessed via the link below.
