Christian Aid speakers give presentations at various times of the year about the organisation's work – from campaigning and fundraising, to humanitarian aid, and long-term projects in some of the most vulnerable communities in the world.
The aim is to inspire people to give, act and pray to help others in need and support communities to find new ways out of poverty.
