Passing on the Faith is an initiative of the Catholic Bishops' Conference of England and Wales to help parents and grandparents to pass on faith in God. The remit of the Working Group is: 

to resource and support parents and grandparents in their “irreplaceable and inalienable” task of passing on faith in God, 
to establish what passing on the faith means and 
to identify the complementary roles, rights and responsibilities of home, school and parish.  

The Working Group has identified resources that are helpful to parents and grandparents in the transmission of faith (ongoing), convened conversations around the Home-School-Parish partnership, promoted two internship projects to explore respectively support for grandparents and for young parents and initiated a pilot study called Partners in a Shared Task.

This website contains information on all these initiatives. Please follow the sidebar links.
