Two competitions aimed at helping local churches to support people in housing need \u2013 from advocacy and advice for vulnerable tenants to \u2018micro-housing\u2019 schemes on church land \u2013 are launched today by the Archbishop of Canterbury\u2019s Commission on Housing, Church and Community.<\/p>\n

The Project Lab competition, run in partnership with the Cinnamon Network, will identify five church projects working to support local people with housing needs and building community. These might include mentoring and befriending services, tenancy training and advocacy on behalf of vulnerable clients, including mediating with landlords.<\/p>\n

The five finalists will be invited to an event in July, at which they will present their projects to an audience of philanthropists and a panel of judges. Two winning projects will receive a \u00a330,000 development grant and there are up to five places available on the two-year \u2018Cinnamon Project Incubator\u2019 \u2013 where projects will receive support from industry professionals to develop their initiative.<\/p>\n
