New toolkit: Hosting a regional anti-poverty roundtable

Our new roundtable guide will help churches or dioceses to host productive regional events

We’ve published a new resource for churches and dioceses who would like to start constructive regional conversations about tackling poverty.

Too often in society, we hear from the same voices over and over again, but if we want to make a real difference in social justice, we need wider, more productive conversations.  

One way to start is to organise a regional roundtable event, bringing together church leaders, people in poverty, and community groups from your city or region. 

Church Action on Poverty has co-hosted two such events in recent years, and we’ve learnt along the way.

This guide explains why such events are useful, and gives practical tips if you want to organise a similar event.
