Cinnamon Network

Who we are

Cinnamon Network works closely with churches across the UK and Ireland to help them transform communities.

We describe ourselves as 'faith-based but not faith-biased' because, whilst we are motivated by our faith in Jesus Christ, we indiscriminately serve people of all faiths and none.

Our work revolves around three key objectives:

1. Incubation
   We identify and incubate great church-based social action projects, building their capacity to be replicated in other churches.  We are committed to innovation and seeking out pioneering projects that meet some of society’s most challenging needs.
2. Impact
   We help churches to positively impact their communities by advising them on their journey of community engagement.  We also provide a menu of Cinnamon Recognised Projects, volunteer leadership training and civic engagement support to ensure projects are effective and sustainable.
3. Influence
   We develop evidence that increases churches' confidence that faith is a force for good in our society.  That confidence leads to new conversations and collaboration between the church and civic agencies.
