This is a new funding stream from Church Urban Fund..... for ecumenical projects that need more funds than our Together Lancashire Mustard seed grants can supply...
Last week, the Archbishop of York visited Handcrafted in Durham with Paul Hackwood to launch Church Urban Fund's new Together Grants.
The Archbishop said: "The Church of England can be very proud of the Church Urban Fund and the work that is done to support the poorest in our society. I am delighted to launch this new £1m Together Grants programme. We are called to bring good news to the poor and the Church Urban Fund helps make this a reality."
There's a report on the visit on the Christian Today website, and more information about Together Grants on the CUF website.
One of the new criteria for Together Grants is the need for applicants to be working together with another church or organisation.
