Local Mission Partners

Scripture Union is proud to work alongside, and support, local groups who are committed to being an expression of Scripture Union in their area.

Better together

Established by individuals, small groups and churches, Local Mission Partners access bespoke support from Scripture Union to enable them to respond to local needs and issues, while sharing the values and core identity of Scripture Union. 

We work alongside, and support, organisations that are ready to embrace growth and development from the benefits that the Mission Partnership Scheme can offer. Whether an existing children / youth project, school's work, detached youth work, a new charity start-up, or a new project launch, we love to advance mission with organisations who echo our passion, regardless of denomination.

No matter where they are based in England and Wales, all of our Misison Partners are committed to reaching children and young people with the good news of Jesus and reflect our vision, mission and priority.
