Funding source(s): Barrow Cadbury Fund Ltd., Barrow and Geraldine S. Cadbury Trust. Applicant overview: The Project on Partnership Between Black and White aims to encourage inter-church relations, mutual trust, the sharing of resources and the building up of competent leadership in partnership between black and white Christians. The Project acts to serve as a resource centre where white led and black led churches can find information about one another's life, worship and traditions. It further serves to provide advice and encouragement to churches, church councils and community workers in areas with significant numbers of African and West Indian churches. It also encourages theological training (begun in December 1978) in the Department of Extramural Studies at Birmingham University. Much of this work is carried out by The Centre for Black and White Christian Partnership, sponsored jointly by the British Council of Christian Churches and Selly Oak Colleges and the University of Birmingham. Nature of support: The Fund provided personal support in the form of two small grants for the co-director of the Project in order to secure his home in South Africa while on secondment in the UK. The Trust provided annual support for the Project/Centre at a general level of £2,000 per annum. Minutes: B&GSCT 5640, BCF 2196, BCF 2230. Notes: File organised by date from newest to oldest.
