Bridge Dreams ‘n’ Aspirations

This presentation was given to the Hinckley Methodist Group of churches on Sunday 22nd February 2009. If you are interested in finding our more about this exciting development please leave a comment or get in touch via the website.

Where are we now?

  • 0.5 equivalent paid leader (Tim)
  • 6 hours of admin support each week
  • A committed team of over 30 people who help run the Bridge

Where do we want to be?

  • A 1.0 equivalent paid leader
  • 0.5 paid youth worker
  • 6 hours admin support
  • A committed team of 40+ people

How do we get there?

  • Take a 5 year view
  • Gain support from Circuit for their present level of support
  • Complete District and Connexional funding forms
  • Talk to wider Bridge community

To this end we are seeking £224,150 over 5 years to fund an expansion from 0.5 to 1.5 full time workers.

We propose to shoulder most of this burden ourselves and over 5 years we plan to increase our own financial commitment by more than 5 times present levels.

Where will the money come from?
