The Festival Church Model is being widely adopted as a way of rejuvenating churches and parishes across the country. At its best, it has been shown to work as a "turnaround strategy" for rural parish churches. Established by the Church of England in 2015 the model is both simple and flexible.
There are many ways this model can be adapted to suit local resources and local needs and there are many examples around the country. We are running a series of online events to help you explore the model and what it might mean for you.
