Christian Aid exists to create a world where everyone can live a full life, free from poverty. The charity works with people of all faiths and none, never gives money to governments and is the official development agency of 41 church denominations in Britain and Ireland.

Christian Aid Week 2026

This year’s Christian Aid Week (CAW 2026) has been a great success, raising a grand total of £3,636.25 including Gift Aid! Thank you to everyone who has donated – whether you were undertaking challenges, delivering envelopes or contributing money, it has all made a huge difference.

The focus country this year was Kenya and Christian Aid’s partner organisation there, Beacon of Hope. This faith-based NGO works on projects that create economic opportunities and strengthen the social wellbeing of communities living in Nairobi’s informal settlements.
