About Cinnamon Network 

Purpose - What is our ultimate aim?

We equip local churches to connect with people in their communities both practically and compassionately.

Beneficiaries - Who do we serve  

We support local churches and Christian organisations who are passionate about engaging their communities and are eager to do so with professionalism and generosity.

Definition - What do we do?  

We build the capacity and capability of local churches and Christian social franchises so they can help more people.

Deliverable - How do we do it?  

Through our national community we create connections, share knowledge, inspire action, and address injustice. We do this by finding breakthrough initiatives, delivering training, providing one-to-one support, connecting people with funding, publishing resources, sharing knowledge and suggesting solutions.

Differentiation - What makes us different?  

Our community development and social franchise practitioners use proven methods to help churches and Christian organisations to join in with what God is doing as they address relevant issues in their communities.
