Introducing the Wales Leadership Forum

The Wales Leadership Forum mission is to support God’s people across Wales to share the Gospel. It is committed to achieving this by identifying, uniting, mentoring, and resourcing God’s people – either in full time ministry or as leaders of ministries.

There are a number of strands to the resources and support offered:

  • EQUIP Forum: a series of local and national events to bring Christians and churches together for encouraging, teaching and sharing.
  • EQUIP Networks: ministry support and mentor groups, offering a programme of webinars, email chats and further training opportunities throughout the year.
  • Growing Churches Programme: an initiative to help train and support future church leaders to share the gospel in Wales.
  • Growing Youth Ministry: a 12-month training course designed to develop and strengthen skills to work with young people and advance the Gospel.
  • EQUIP Fund: an initiative to help fund and support ‘grassroots’ projects or ministries across Wales as they share the gospel with Welsh communities.
