Our client is a diocese serving a vibrant community in the North-West of England, running a racial justice and faith project that supports schools and churches to be a place of belonging and flourishing for everyone. The project's activities enable schools and churches to create a safe space for dialogue and learning, empowering children, young people and adults to celebrate diversity, champion difference and put love into action as modelled through the life of Jesus.
The project aims to develop discipleship pathways for children, young people and their families, enabling them to grow in their Christian faith and to belong to a thriving church community.
In response to the exciting growth of the project, our client is looking to appoint an additional Project Worker to support the growing opportunities for Christian discipleship and to embed the project's ethos in primary and secondary schools and parishes across their diocese.
Our client welcomes applications from candidates from all backgrounds. A passion for racial justice, the Christian faith and working with children and young people is essential. Experience of working within a racial justice context, although desirable is not essential, given the wide range of training and development opportunities provided.
