Descriptiontext

Christian Concern is a UK-based not-for-profit Christian advocacy organization that operates as CCFON Ltd, a private limited company registered in England and Wales (Company Number 6628490) and headquartered at 70 Wimpole Street, London. With a headcount of 22 staff led by Chief Executive Andrea Williams, its mission is to advocate for the Christian faith in UK public life across media, law, politics and government. The organization delivers this through three integrated specialist ministries: the Christian Legal Centre (providing legal support to Christians facing workplace discrimination), Wilberforce Collective (specialist societal-issues ministry), and Wilberforce Publications (publishing arm producing educational resources such as 'Sacred Sexuality for Teens' and the 'UK Grooming Gangs and Islam' report).

The business model is donation-funded: Christian Concern is not a registered charity and does not charge for services, relying entirely on voluntary giving. A parallel registered charity, Faith, Truth and Hope (1121897), supports elements of the work eligible for charitable funding and accepts Gift Aid donations. Distribution is direct-to-supporter via the christiandomain.com website, email and postal communications, social channels (Facebook, X, Instagram, YouTube), and a touring events programme including the 'Awake, Arise!' events across UK cities; there are no intermediaries, resellers, or subscription products.

The customer base spans individuals facing faith-based legal or workplace challenges (nurses, police officers, chaplains, artists), churches and Christian organizations seeking public-engagement support, and the broader general public engaged through petitions and MP-action campaigns. Case outcomes in the most recent reporting window include 12 reported legal wins, a £187,000 tribunal award plus £603,000 in opponent costs for the Darlington Nurses, and multi-year settlements in the Randall, Melle, Salmons and Culf cases. Geographic operations are UK-domestic only, with no global footprint asserted.
