Our vision, values and ethos
Transformed lives. Thriving churches. An end to UK poverty. This is the world we want to see.
We are Christians Against Poverty – it’s great to meet you.
Poverty is so much more than going without. It’s so much more than lacking materially. Poverty destroys lives. It robs people of joy, hope and opportunities. It tears families apart, isolates those most in need of support, and leads many to believe there is no way out. Before seeking help, 1 in 2 of our clients had considered or attempted suicide.
Here at CAP, we won’t settle for that.
Our vision is to see transformed lives, thriving churches and an end to UK poverty.
What we do
Through a team of hundreds of dedicated staff members based in all four UK nations, and hundreds of incredible churches delivering our services, people in desperate need are discovering life-changing freedom and hope every day.
Since 1996, we’ve seen tens of thousands of families and individuals break free from debt and poverty. And as the impact of the cost of living crisis is felt in households across the UK, we know there is much more to be done.
We provide free professional debt help, job clubs, life skills groups and money education in the heart of communities like yours. All our services are delivered face-to-face through local churches, which means you’ll receive both the practical and emotional support you need on your journey.
We couldn’t do what we do without a network of incredible supporters who share our heart to see lives transformed, thriving churches and an end to UK poverty. Find out how you can get involved and make a difference.
