SOCIAL / POLITICAL

The Baptist Union of Great Britain engages with a wide range of social and political concerns, both speaking directly into the political structures and processes, and resourcing local churches to understand and respond to particular issues of concern.

Much of this work is done in partnership with the Methodist Church and the United Reformed Church as part of the 'Joint Public Issues Team' (www.jointpublicissues.org.uk).

Speaking for BUGB is our policy guide on when, how and with what authority we speak out on behalf of Baptists.
