Welcome to the Forum for Change Media cluster

Over the next few months we aim to update this site with articles, news and networking opportunities for all those involved in the media with a heart for transformation.

"Time to face facts; the media owns the public imagination.  Fail to engage with the media and we will fail to connect with this generation or the next.  Forum for Change can be a place where creative re-engagement begins."

Andrew Graystone, Director, Churches' Media Council
