Dear John

Today is exactly 40 years since the founding of Church Action on Poverty in
1982. Since then, Church Action on Poverty has been working to end UK poverty,
led by the real experts – people who have experienced poverty themselves.

Together, you and we have challenged the unjust treatment of people seeking
sanctuary, tackled irresponsible lending practices, and given thousands of poor
and marginalised people the confidence and opportunity to influence decisions
that affect their communities. We have all influenced government policies on
Universal Credit, holiday hunger, the Minimum Wage and financial inclusion, and
made sure the voices of people in poverty are heard at Westminster. Together, we
have loosened the grip of poverty for hundreds of thousands across the UK.

From 6:45pm this evening, you're invited to join us for a special worship service,
streamed live from the Abbey on the Scottish island of Iona. We'll celebrate the
people and achievements of the past 40 years, but more importantly, we'll pray
together for a stronger movement that can reclaim dignity, agency and power.

And you can include a concern for poverty and justice in your own worship, by
using our new anthology 'Dignity, Agency, Power'. It contains all kinds of inspirational materials – drawing on our 40 years
working to tackle UK poverty, but looking forward to how we can build an even
stronger movement to reclaim dignity, agency and power.
