THE RENEWAL PROGRAMME is a community development organisation, founded in 1971 on Christian principles.

The Chief Executive Officer Rev. Canon Ann Easter ensures that the Renewal Programme is sensitive to the changing needs of the community, and provides a clear direction in developing its mission and strategy.
 

This is achieved by:

• representing the Programme to the wider community by the provision of information, advice and consultancy to interested bodies,
• developing new projects and initiatives in co-operation with local agencies,
• overseeing fundraising activities,
• supervising the activities of the Project Directors and reporting to the Board of Management.

We achieve our goals by operating through the following projects:
