What we do	We are able to act as a link to the churches across Bournemouth as well as provide an avenue of advertising and recruitment to initiatives. SWEA has a vast array of talent and ability within its membership and is by far represents the largest sector of volunteer sector workers. As such we are able to advise on the status quo of many member organisations and we are able to provide a perspective which other agencies cannot. We can act as a vital go between for the faith community and are best placed to speak on behalf of many people in the town on many differing issues.
