Kairos Limited
The Kairos Partnership is a charity, supported by the Diocese of Hereford, to work with local faith groups to start and develop projects to help their communities.
If you have a great idea to help your community and are you looking for help to turn your idea into a practical proposition, or wish to expand your existing project Kairos is here to help you nurture your idea.
We work with any community group, with a faith-base (whether Christian, Muslim, Jewish or other recognised faith) that needs help to turn an idea into a workable project, or to grow a small project into a bigger one in your neighbourhood!

Training and Resources
NEW VOLUNTEER GOOD PRACTICE GUIDE
This is an invaluable resource for all those organisations involved, or considering becoming involved, in working with volunteers. This new edition produced by the Herefordshire Volunteer Centre was
commissioned by the Herefordshire Infrastructure Consortium and funded by Capacity Builders.
It provides basic information on all the main areas of good practice ranging from practical Issues, such as insurance, to more complex issues, such as screening and retention. The layout is attractive and easy to follow with listings of other useful organisations and contacts. At the back are samples of forms and checklists that can be adapted for your needs.
