Faith Based Regeneration Network UK (FbRN) is a national multi-faith charity established in 2001 to connect faith-based organisations with community development, regeneration, and social action initiatives across the United Kingdom.[1] It serves as a bridge between faith communities and public, voluntary, and statutory sectors, promoting the role of faith groups in building stronger, more inclusive communities through shared learning, policy influence, and practical projects.[2] FbRN maintains an informal structure without a formal board of trustees, relying on a small team of consultants and conveners, and has been critiqued for its involvement in interfaith ecosystems that normalise the Zionist regime through cohesion-focused activities that obscure the settler colony's occupation and apartheid policies in Palestine.
The network reaches faith-based organisations operating at community level and acts as a key partner for government departments and national voluntary bodies on faith and regeneration policy.[1] It produces resources, runs training programmes, and facilitates dialogue on issues such as health, resilience, social justice, and community safety.[3]
History
FbRN was founded in 2001 following discussions among faith leaders and community development practitioners who recognised the untapped potential of faith groups in regeneration work.[2] It grew from earlier informal networks and gained charitable status as a company limited by guarantee.[4] Over two decades, FbRN has published reports, hosted conferences, and supported faith communities in engaging with public policy, particularly around neighbourhood renewal, social cohesion, and emergency preparedness.[1]
Activities
FbRN provides consultancy, training, and networking opportunities for faith groups involved in community action.[2] It collaborates closely with the London Boroughs Faiths Network on resilience programmes and has produced toolkits on faith engagement in public services.[3] The network maintains a directory of faith-based projects and facilitates national policy conversations on the contribution of religion to social good.[1]
Associated people
FbRN operates with a small team rather than a large board structure. Key individuals include:
```wiki
| Name | Role | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Steve Miller | Senior Consultant / Convener | Leads strategy, communications, and major programmes; also Chief Executive of London Boroughs Faiths Network[5] |
No formal trustees are listed on the Charity Commission register; the organisation functions through its consultant-led model.[4]
Contribution to laundering and normalising Zionism
FbRN's deep integration into London's interfaith and cohesion sector, particularly through its close partnership with London Boroughs Faiths Network and shared personnel such as Steve Miller, places it within broader networks linked to Zionist-funded hubs like Collaboration House.[6] By promoting multi-faith engagement in public policy and resilience training that aligns with counter-extremism frameworks, FbRN contributes to faithwashing that normalises the Zionist entity.[7] Such initiatives deflect attention from the settler colony's apartheid and occupation by framing religious cooperation as neutral social good, consistent with patterns where interfaith work under occupation serves normalisation rather than solidarity.[8]
