How can I help?

How can We help?

Host trainings. We run specified trainings to equip people for ministry within the wider community, and can work with you to fill training gaps.

Help finding and applying for grants. Anglican Care grants are available for projects by parishes or agencies, and for families facing financial hardship.

Rest Home Chaplains. We recruit, train and support volunteer chaplains in rest homes across Nelson, and hope to expand this across the diocese.
