Could you help us this Christmas?

We believe that every child should have the chance to discover Jesus, especially at Christmas!

But for many, hearing of his birth within the setting of the church is very unlikely. With an estimated 95% of children in England and Wales not part of a church, we're working harder than ever to take the good news of Jesus beyond the church in exciting and culturally relevant ways.

Your generous support will help us continue in our mission to create opportunities for children and young people to explore the Bible, respond to Jesus and grow in faith. 

Together we can reach the 95.
