Faith-based charities – aka religious charities – make up around a quarter of all registered charities in the UK.
They range from local churches, mosques, synagogues and temples to large national charities such as The Salvation Army, Samaritans, The Children’s Society and Islamic Relief UK.
At Yarn, we’re super proud to provide creative support to a diverse mix of faith-based charities.
Through our work, we help tell their stories and tackle pressing issues such as homelessness, poverty and discrimination.
How we work with faith charities
At the start of a project with your religious charity, we’ll take the time to truly understand your values and beliefs, the people you want to reach, the goals of your project, and any sensitivities we need to consider.
With this foundation in place, our creative experts will craft compelling stories which are finely tuned to engage your audiences and inspire them to take action.
Whether we tell your stories online, in a video or through printed materials, we’ll make sure our five golden threads – stimulating, moving, accurate, relatable and trustworthy – run through every piece.
With all our faith-based clients, we go the extra mile to make every project a genuinely collaborative experience, as straightforward as possible, and enjoyable from start to finish.
