Who are Christians Against Poverty (CAP)?

Across the UK, millions of people are experiencing a poverty crisis, leaving them feeling trapped, desolate and abandoned. We are Christians Against Poverty. We cannot accept a society where poverty exists.

So we take action. And we also experience the daily privilege of seeing people discover hope as they begin to work with CAP and their local church. Tens of thousands of lives have been positively impacted through the powerful combination of practical help, restorative church communities and Jesus’ love.

Transformed lives. Thriving churches. An end to UK poverty.

At Portswood Church we partner with Christians Against Poverty to offer CAP Job Clubs and CAP Life Skills.

What to expect at a CAP Job Club

You’ll follow an eight-week course that will give you all the tools you need to find work, from writing a CV that employers won’t be able to resist, to brushing up on those all-important interview skills.

Our CAP Job Club is run by trained volunteers who understand the challenges you are facing when looking for work, and who really want you to succeed. You will not only have group support but your CAP Job Club Coach will spend time helping you achieve your personal goals.

For further information go to https://capuk.org/get-help/cap-job-clubs, contact your local CAP Job Club Manager, Roger, on 07565 829728 or come along to The Hub Cafe on a Wednesday morning.

What to expect at a CAP Life Skills course

Life skills is a friendly group that will give you the confidence and decision-making skills needed to live on a low income. You’ll learn practical money saving techniques, such as cooking on a budget and making money go further.

For further information go to https://capuk.org/get-help/cap-life-skills, contact your local CAP Life Skills Manager, Sandra, on 07354 256829 or come along to The Hub Cafe on a Wednesday morning.

Does it cost anything?

All our services are completely free! We’re able to provide free services because CAP is a charity and receives donations from churches and individuals who want to help people.

Do I have to be a Christian to use your services?

No. CAP will help anyone regardless of their religion or beliefs.

CAP monitor our services to make sure that everybody receives the same caring service regardless of race, nationality, religion, age, gender, marital status, sexual orientation or disability.
