Church Action on Poverty

Call Directions Website

Church Action on Poverty Dignity, agency and power. Building a movement to loosen the grip of poverty in the UK. We ask anyone posting on our page to respect these values.

At Church Action on Poverty, we do not tolerate racism, discrimination, or hate speech of any kind. We prioritise and value the diversity of our people and we’re committed to fostering a culture where everyone feels they belong and has equal access to opportunities. When we see instances of racism or other forms of discrimination, wherever they may be, we all need to speak up and take action. We all have a responsibility to build a world of equal opportunities where no one is judged by the colour of their skin, their sexuality, their gender, their disability or their religious beliefs. There is much to be done, and Church Action on Poverty is committed to working with our communities to enable people of all backgrounds to feel safe, thrive and succeed. If you post content that is abusive or discriminatory, it will be removed and you will receive a warning. If you post offending content again, you will be banned from our page.
