AStepFWD has announced an exciting new partnership with The Grace Brand CIC, bringing both organisations together to spearhead Christian music, creativity and community across the UK.
The Grace Brand is a faith-based entertainment and community organisation operating The Grace Brunch event series and PUMP & PRAISE events, where faith, culture, music, wellness and real connections can grow outside the confines of traditional church walls. Through events such as The Grace Brunch, The Grace Brunch Social and Operating with Grace as an Entrepreneur, the organisation has brought together thousands of young adults and professionals through Christian music, worship, networking and community events.
AStepFWD is the UK’s leading Christian & Gospel music platform with over ten years of experience curating independent monthly UK Christian Charts. StepFWD Awards, established in 2021, has gained international recognition as “Dove meets Stellar” style awards that cover both CCM and Gospel music. The most recent milestone is the Official UK Christian & Gospel Singles Chart launched in March 2026 with AstepFWD working closely with the Official Charts Company to develop and run a specialised chart that reflects the growing variety of faith-based music. According to founder O’Neil Dennis, the aim of AStepFWD is to empower Christian creatives while building a strong sense of community and shared purpose in doing all things for His glory to spread the gospel.
The new partnership will see AStepFWD and The Grace Brand work together across media and live events, helping to give more Christian voices a platform and reach more people.
Speaking about the partnership, Samuel John, Founder of The Grace Brand CIC, said:
“We are excited to partner with AStepFWD, an organisation that has consistently championed Christian music, culture, and storytelling across the UK for more than a decade. At The Grace Brand, our vision is to create spaces where faith and culture meet in meaningful ways, and this partnership represents a powerful opportunity to amplify Christian voices, celebrate Kingdom creativity, and reach new audiences through both media and live experiences. We look forward to building something impactful together and serving the wider Christian community.”
This marks the start of a new working relationship between both organisations, with more details to be shared in the coming weeks.
