As a ROC church you will be supporting the work of Redeeming Our Communities in your area and you will have the following benefits available to you:

Partnerships: ROC links local churches with agencies including Fire & Rescue, Police, Local Authority and others, helping to bridge the comunication gap and enable a working partnership.
Facilities: ROC has often been able to find rent-free buildings for local ROC projects for example: the ROC Café in Bury is held in a Fire Station community room, the ROC Centre in Radcliffe is in a council-owned community centre. These openings have come about because of the high regard our partners have for ROC.
Funding: The brand has proven useful in applying for grants and in other fundraising activities.
Resources: ROC provides a range of useful promotional materials and designs including; logos, graphics, literature, website, DVDs, resource disc, and power points.
Expertise: ROC offers guidance and expertise on a whole spectrum of issues, advice on setting up projects, and training for Ambassadors as well as project workshops.
National Network: ROC offers a platform for local projects to be part of a larger, national picture, for example each ROC Café can be part of a national network of Cafés which share ideas and best practise and the national web site can appeal for volunteers or promote local ideas.

Financial commitment of ROC Churches

Partner churches are asked to contribute a minimum of £25 per month to ROC national.

Our vision is to find 400 partner churches who contribute between £25 - £100 per month, depending on the size of the church and the extent of the partnership with ROC. This would provide us with the funds to cover our current running costs per year and allow us to reach more cities with the Redeeming Our Communities vision!
