Derby City Vision
A relational network of Christian leaders who pray and play their part in serving the city of Derby
City Vision is a relational network of Christian leaders who pray and work together to serve the city of Derby
Spirit Led
We reflect a diverse range of churches and charities of various shapes and sizes across different denominations and backgrounds seeking to exercise the gifts of the Holy Spirit and exhibit the fruit of the Holy Spirit in our life together.
Seeking Unity
In a broken world which is sadly all too often characterised by deep division and polarised positions we value coming together humbly around one table to listen and learn from one another, seeking to embody the kind of unity Jesus prayed for ‘that they may be one’.
Serving Together
We ask ‘what can we do together that individual churches and charities can’t do alone?’ actively seeking to work with those who lead and represent different charities and forums in the city together with those exercising church ministries such as children’s, youth and student work.
We seek to foster connection and collaboration through a variety of different initiatives.

AN INITIATIVE OF DERBY CITY VISION
working with Derby City Council, Safe Families and Home For Good
One of the ways we serve our city is by encouraging Christians to consider how they can be involved in fostering and adoption in Derby - whether that be considering fostering or adoption for themselves or supporting those in their own church community who already do.
We are committed to:
Helping to prevent children going into care in the first place.
Helping to recruit more foster carers in the city.
Helping to support new and existing carers.
You can download a copy of the video to show at your church meeting here.
