More people will be helped to better their quality of life after a church in the heart of the Farnworth community received funding from the National Lottery Community Fund.
The cash will be invested in the Jeremiah project, which helps to develop people's skills and overcome isolation through a variety of classes, including English classes for speakers of other languages, training courses and volunteering opportunities to help improve job prospects.

The funding will also allow more one-to-one employability support sessions.
These sessions will focus on refining CVs, honing interview techniques, and providing valuable career guidance to individuals striving to enter or re-enter the workforce.
“This funding will allow us to further our mission of empowering individuals within our community, equipping them with the skills and resources needed to thrive in both the job market and society at large.”
Farnworth Baptist Church remains committed to fostering a supportive and inclusive community environment where individuals can achieve their full potential.
Through initiatives like the CAP Job Club and ESOL classes, the project continues to make a tangible difference in the lives of those it serves.
