… and Christian Concern expands its reach too

Andrea Williams

Evangelical advocacy body Christian Concern (CC), and its sister organisation Christian Legal Centre, is increasingly being asked to bring its expertise in championing and campaigning for Christian values to nations outside the UK.

Demand from other countries is such that, in the last few years, CC has been invited to speak to groups involved in similar work from Italy, Hungary, Poland, Ukraine, Korea, South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, Nepal, USA, and Canada.

Chief Executive Andrea Williams said: ‘People there cannot believe that, in the UK, street preachers are put in police cells, nurses lose their jobs for offering prayer, or doctors are dismissed for refusing to say that a man is a woman. The UK is the outlier nation here as most other nations simply don’t have the cases. That is why they call upon us, to help them resist’.
