Capital (building) project fundraising appeals
Resources to support chaplaincies as you fundraise for your building projects (particularly larger projects).
Please contact Juliet Evans, Diocesan Fundraising Adviser, if you need any support for your chaplaincy.
Note: Chaplaincies should contact their Archdeacon and refer to the Diocesan Handbook (Section 5F) regarding Faculties at the earliest opportunity. No significant expenditure should be undertaken, nor should any money be raised, until a Faculty has been granted.
