The Milton Keynes Christian Foundation was established in 1985 by the Milton Keynes Christian Council to address issues and take forward projects in community and economic development.
Over the years, the Foundation has engaged in a range of activities and developed a number of projects, both its own and in partnership with others.
In our activities, we strive to work in partnership with others with whom we share common concerns, for it is, we believe, through partnership that the most creative and exciting solutions often emerge. Whatever we do, we seek to express the basic belief that all people and all things have an essential value and inherit potential. Whether through training, environmental concern or community regeneration, we try to work in ways which enable some of this potential to be released.
Our base at Foundation House is home to a number of other organisations, including the Wolverton & Greenleys Town Council, Riselings Parents & Toddlers Group, Tower Drive, etc.
It looks over the Square, which has been re-furbished, thanks to a grant raised by the Wolverton Partnership from the Single Regeneration Budget.
In recent years, we have worked with range of organisations and individuals on plans to regenerate Wolverton. We helped found the Wolverton Partnership in 1996 and have assisted the Partnership to obtain two rounds of Government Single Regeneration Budget funding, resulting in 1.5 million being made available to Wolverton between 1996 & 2002.
The money is being used to make a number of improvements to the physical environment, provide childcare facilities, create a range of training opportunities, improve town centre security and support local businesses.
