The government and UK churches ‘need each other’ to effectively tackle the cost of living crisis, the Evangelical Alliance (EAUK) told parliamentarians in November in Westminster.

The event, The Church’s Response to the Cost of Living Crisis, was held alongside the charity Christians Against Poverty (CAP) to launch the latest Stories of Hope resource

Danny Webster, EAUK’s director of advocacy, addressed more than 60 policymakers and MPs including Danny Kruger and Sir Stephen Timms. He said: ‘Churches are places of hope. We need strength and partnership between churches and the government in this upcoming season. Neither of us can do this alone, we need each other.’
