RENEW WELLBEING
The charity enables churches to set up spaces that are overtly inclusive of the whole community and most particularly of the needs of the most isolated, most anxious and most vulnerable people in their community. This is encouraging churches to serve and benefit society by sustaining simple quiet shared community spaces in partnership with existing mental health services.
