Church Action on Poverty Sunday 2021 will be on 21 February, on the theme of 'New Wineskins'. We invite you to join churches across the UK and be part of this special day:
We live in tough times. The past few months have highlighted the inequalities that sweep too many people into poverty. But we have also been reminded of the values that matter most: mutuality, compassion and community. As we journey forward together, we have the chance to do things differently. If we are to build a society in which everyone can live a full life, free from poverty, we must ensure the voices of people who are struggling to make ends meet are heard.
Join churches around the UK in prayer, giving and action this Church Action on Poverty Sunday. Share a vision for a society founded on compassion and justice, where all people are able to exercise dignity, agency and power.
"It's vital that we listen to those on the margins who saw and experienced poverty first"
(Stef Benstead, Poverty Truth Commissioner and campaigner for disabled people's rights)
Use our free resources to reflect and pray for change, and raise funds to enable more people like Stef to speak truth to power.
