Supporting the Work of TfT
We need your support to continue and develop our work. Because of the nature of our ministry many are wary of supporting us and so we need the prayer, encouragement, and financial help of as many Churches, groups and individuals as possible.
It costs almost £2,500 a week to run TfT. As a charity we depend heavily on the free-will giving of Christians who share our vision for this part of God's work. We make no formal charge for our ministry, although we do appreciate donations from those who receive help from us.
Three ways you can support the work of TfT:
- Praying. Prayer is of the highest importance as we seek to minister wholeness and God's love. We are very aware of the spiritual battles that accompany our work, and we greatly appreciate the prayers of all who can support us in overcoming them.
- Encouraging. We very much need and value your personal encouragement. But please also encourage your Churches, leaders and friends to get to know what TfT can offer-brochures and posters are available to help you do this. If you are not one already, why not become a TfT member by going to the "Getting in Touch" page. You will then receive our quarterly newsletter, prayer card and other information.
- Giving. TfT has regular outgoings, but our income is often very irregular! For this reason the best financial support is by monthly Standing Order. Regular monthly gifts of £10 or £20 from sufficient people make a big impact, and allow us to plan ahead knowing we have a sound financial base.

Gift Aid
Donations made by tax payers (large or small, regular payments or single gifts) qualify for tax relief under the Gift Aid scheme.
This can increase the value of your donations by up to 28%. That means for every £10 you give, we get an extra £2.80 from Inland Revenue.
If you are giving directly from your bank by setting up a Standing Order or single transfer yourself, please download the form above, fill it in and send it to us so that we may also Gift Aid your donation.

Pray for TfT
We would value your prayers for our ministry. If you join our membership, we will send you a quarterly prayer card along with our newsletter to inform you of specific prayer points.
If you would like to prayer for us more generally, we always need prayers in these areas:
- God’s continued provision in terms of finance and resources
- Individuals coming to us for help - that they would find love, encouragements and support
- Our staff team as they co-ordinate the ministry, offer support and organise events
- Our team of Voluntary Workers, as they lead Barnabas support groups and meet with new contacts
- Our speakers, as they share their own stories and help the church to remain faithful to the Bible's teachings
- TfT's profile and influence on the wider church
Promote TfT
Our Media Policy is to avoid involvement with media organisations. This enables us to focus our energies on supporting the people who come to us for help. However, it does mean that we miss out on opportunities to become better known.
So, we would value any help in promoting our services within the church. Ways that you might be able do this include:
- Link to this website (www.truefreedomtrust.co.uk) on your church/organisation website, blog, Facebook page etc
- Invite one of our speakers to your church meeting/service
- Display some our leaflets/posters on your church notice board
- Feature an article/advert from TfT in your church newsletter
Please contact us for any resources that we can provide to support you in promoting the message and services of TfT.
