<p>Strategic Development Funding (which ran from 2014-22) was awarded to dioceses.
It is for dioceses to decide which churches, activities and networks they support,
in line with their strategies. We do not routinely capture data on the proportion
of funding directed to particular networks. Most projects work with a number of different
parishes and Fresh Expressions of Church (e.g. across a town).</p><p>Out of a total
of £285m of national Church funding awarded between 2020 and 2023 by the Strategic
Investment Board or by its successor, the Strategic Mission and Ministry Investment
Board, we estimate that £13m (4%) of funding has been awarded to dioceses for projects
where all churches worked with the Church Revitalisation Trust (now known as The Revitalise
Trust) and £34m (12%) has been allocated to programmes where at least one church out
of many include a Church Revitalisation Trust element.</p><p>This funding comprises
support both for new and established churches.</p>
