New website launched

ByCaritas 14th August 2017

Caritas Archdiocese of Birmingham is pleased to announce the launch of our new website.

We continue to have a presence on the Archdiocese Website and are grateful for their help in publishing news and information for us in the past, and for their on-going support. However, as our work grows we felt the time was right to expand our online presence. Having our own site allows us to be more flexible and publish a range of resources and news for our members.

Caritas AOB website

On this site you will find latest news and events from the Caritas network and our members. You will also find information about the projects we are involved in, volunteer case studies, member resources and more. If you have any feedback on the new site please do get in touch.

If you have any events or news you wish to publish on the site please contact us on [email protected].
