Deficit Budgets

NEW report
Over 11 million people - that’s one in every five of us - is living on a deficit budget, meaning our household income, whether from wages or benefits, isn’t enough to cover the cost of the basic essentials needed to survive.
Find out more about the reality of deficit budgets in our new report out today: capuk.org/deficit-budgets.
We are Christians Against Poverty - it’s great to meet you.
Poverty is so much more than going without. It’s so much more than lacking materially. Poverty destroys lives. It robs people of joy, hope and opportunities. It tears families apart, isolates those most in need of support, and leads many to believe there is no way out. Before seeking help, 1 in 3 of our clients had considered or attempted suicide.
Here at CAP, we won’t settle for that.
Our vision is to see transformed lives, thriving churches and an end to UK poverty.
What we do
Through a team of more than 400 dedicated staff members based in all four UK nations, and hundreds of incredible churches delivering our services, people in desperate need are discovering life-changing freedom and hope every day.
Since 1996, we’ve seen tens of thousands of families and individuals break free from debt and poverty. And as the impact of the cost of living crisis is felt in households across the UK, we know there is much more to be done.
Find out more about who we are, and why we do what we do.
