Below is a sample of the emails you can expect to receive when signed up to Bath and Wells.
Dear all – just to give you an update, following our plans in March to
design a database which will make it easier for us to search for funds and from which we can generate future Funding Bulletins as well as seeing how we can best make the information available to parishes which need to search for
funding.
We have interrupted work on the new funding database to concentrate on keeping churches informed about funds related to COVID-19 and supporting your churches and communities with changes or resulting projects.
For the time being, we are putting any new information on our website each week – please check at
https://www.bathandwells.org.uk/supporting-parishes/stewardship/latest-giving-and-fundraising-news/ weekly where you should find the new information by Friday each week at the latest – this week’s update is already there.
If you have any specific funding enquiries in the meantime, please get in touch.

This autumn the Go Team are taking their
Inspire events online. The popular resource evenings for all those working with children, young people and their families will be hosted by the team on Zoom and instead of travelling to 3 different venues around the Diocese, they are offering a morning,
afternoon or evening session from the comfort of your own home. Join us with a cuppa and a cupcake!
Tuesday 13 October, 14:00 – 15.30
Thursday 15 October, 19:30 – 21:00
Friday 16 October, 10.30am – 12:00
Entitled ‘All Things Change’ each Zoom session will include inspiring talks from a range of voices; space to discuss and reflect on our work with children and young people; and some new resources and ideas for Advent 2020. The events
are free and open to all volunteers as well as paid workers and clergy.
“The Covid-19 pandemic has changed many things. Our lives have changed and so has our work with children, young people and their families. It has and will change our ministry going forward and we’d like to offer the opportunity to gather
online, to reflect and to be inspired afresh for this vital work.“ Andy Levett, Go Team Adviser
