Sharing Our Dreams
Church Action on Poverty Sunday
19 October 2025
Together we can share dreams of a better world – and challenge the reality of poverty
On Church Action on Poverty Sunday, give, act and pray with others – together we can end UK poverty.
- Use the powerful ‘Dreams and Realities’ portrait exhibition to challenge and inspire your congregation
- Use our free worship resources to reflect and pray for change.
- Celebrate what your church is already doing – and explore how you could do more in partnership with Church Action on Poverty.
- Raise funds to support people working together to reclaim dignity, agency and power across the UK.
If you took part in Church Action on Poverty Sunday in March, this is a great chance to celebrate the commitments you’ve made to tackle poverty locally. Please do join in again!
Sign up below and we’ll send you a resource pack during the summer, so you can start planning your service
The Church Action on Poverty team were very supportive to me and it was great to be able to work along side them, I would like to thank them all for everything that they did in encouraging me with the Let's End Poverty project.
