Unlock Office
Our Unlock office is only staffed part time. Please e-mail or leave messages on the office answerphone but bear with us if our responses are not immediate.
COVID 19
All our staff are now back from furlough and working their usual hours. Our local and national activties are returning to their usual level, including looking for new Local partnerships and training events. Contact the office if you are interested.
Both our office and local functions have been extensively disrupted by the pandemic, but we have used the time productively. We have created a new suite of resources to help people to work through the impacts of 'The Year We Stayed at Home' . You can find them here http://www.unlock-urban.org.uk/resources_projects.php#bible_study_resources
Vacancies
No current vacancies.
Giving
COVID 19 has had a severe impact on our income and effectively wiped out anything we had to fall back on. Both the 2020 and 2021 Unlock London Walks, on which we depend for the bulk of our running costs, had to be run as virtual events. While the response in 2020 was generous and encouraging, the 2021 response has so far been very limited and concerning leaving us with a £20k shortfall. Without a significant upturn in giving during the next few months the future of Unlock's work is in real danger.

Unlocking the Prodigal Event and Resource.
An Unlock Bible activity event based on Luke 15.
This took place at Windy Nook in Gateshead and again in Heanor in May 2018.
Unlocking the Prodigal poster with details >>
This is some of the feedback we received after the event:-
I chatted to the people who came and got overwhelmingly positive feedback. The gist of it was that it had taken a story they were very familiar with and helped them see it with fresh eyes - that it had helped it move from something they knew with their heads, to something that touched their hearts, and that it had provoked some deep and helpful conversations, arising out of the themes of the parable and the way it connected with their own lives and experiences.They saidit had been a lot of fun as well, and that the lunch was good!
I was asked some really good questions by church members, such as, "How can we do more of this, for ourselves?" and "How could we draw in those on the edges of the church, who don't already know the stories in the Bible, for something a bit like this?" I look forward to exploring what the answers to those questions might look like, in the months to come!
Our Lent course has had a very strong Unlock influence and it's been such a great experience.We are a church full of very practical, down to earth people who tend to be quite private about what goes on inside them and not have huge amounts of confidence.Unlock hasenabled usto share our experiences of prayer and God in a much moreopenway.That, in turn has led to a new courage and willingness to pray for and with one another, which makes me a very humble, grateful, happy Vicar indeed.

Unlock Local Partnerships
Next . . . We always interested to hear from new places who would like to develop some Unlock work. We focus on urban commiuties. Contact the National Office if you want to know more.
Working with Theological Colleges
Unlock is in partnership with the Queen's Foundation, Birmingham , and is willing to explore the possibility of partnerships with other Theological Colleges and Ministry Training Programmes in the UK, particularly in regions where we already have local projects established.

The next Unlock London Walk will be on Saturday 28th April 2018 in Tottenham and Harringay.
The 39th Unlock London Walk
Saturday April 23rd 2022 in Tower Hamlets
Map brochure now published!
More details on our London Walk Page >>
The 2020 and 2021 virtual Unlock London walks, are featured on our 'Unlock Support' page http://www.unlock-urban.org.uk/support_walk.php
We are dependent on the income from the Unlock London walks for around 30% of our annual funding, and without that income Unlock will not be able to continue its valuable work; so we really need you to donate anyway, just as if the 2020 & 2021 walks were still happening. We hope that the online version of these walks will encourage you to do that.
