  • Why the Church Should Care About Housing’ by Bishop Graham Tomlin and Dr Stephen Backhouse

    Why the Church Should Care About Housing’ by Bishop Graham Tomlin and Dr Stephen Backhouse

    A PRESENTATION BY THE ARCHBISHOPS’ COMMISSION ON HOUSING CHURCH AND COMMUNITY A briefing paper from the Mission and Public Affairs Council Introduction In March 2018, Archbishop Justin published Reimagining Britain: Foundations for Hope. Building on a key chapter, ‘Housing – the Architecture of Community’, this Commission was set up in April 2019 to bring a Christian contribution to the debate on how to ensure people are well-housed and how housing policy and practice can be directed to creating well-functioning communities. The Commission is made up of ten Commissioners drawn from amongst housing professionals, clergy, business, academia and central and local government. Charlie Arbuthnot and Bishop Graham Tomlin are the Chair and Vice-Chair of the Commission, respectively. The other Commissioners are Dr Stephen Backhouse, Cym D’Souza, Canon Chris Beales, David Orr, The Revd Lynne Cullens, Marvin Rees, Sir Robert Devereux, and Professor Christine Whitehead. As well as making recommendations for Government and other key actors in the housing market, the Commission was tasked with looking at what actions the Church could take, on its own or in partnership with others, to help tackle the housing crisis at local, regional, and national level. The Commission’s final report is published on Sunday, 21st February, and digital copies will be circulated to all members on that date. You should also have received a free copy of our Grove booklet ‘Why The Church Should Care About Housing’ by Bishop Graham Tomlin and Dr Stephen Backhouse. In addition, there will be an online event on the 24th February, with both Archbishops and the newly appointed Bishop for Housing, The Rt Revd Guli Francis-Dehqani, as well as senior representatives from a range of key stakeholders who share our vision for housing and community.
  • Faith Leaders' Open Letter to the Prime Minister

    Faith Leaders' Open Letter to the Prime Minister

    http://interfaithrefugeeinitiative.org/ We are leaders from Britain’s major faiths: Buddhist, Christian, Hindu, Jain, Jewish, Muslim, Sikh, Zoroastrian. All our faiths compel us to affirm the dignity of all human beings and to offer help to anyone in need. As people of faith, we call on your Government urgently to revise its policy towards refugees. The best of this country is represented by the generosity, kindness, solidarity and decency that Britain has at many times shown those fleeing persecution, even at times of far greater deprivation and difficulty than the present day. We rejoice in the mosaic of different faiths and British communities that we now represent. We are proud that in May 2016, in a survey by Amnesty International, 83% of Britons said they would welcome refugees into their neighbourhoods and households. In the face of the unfolding human catastrophe, there are immediate and viable steps that the Government can take to offer sanctuary to more refugees. We call on you to create safe, legal routes of travel, for example by adopting fair and humane family reunion policies for refugees. Under the present immigration rules, a British doctor of Syrian origin could not bring her parents from a refugee camp in Lebanon – even though they were refugees and she could support and house them. A Syrian child who arrived alone in the UK could not bring his parents from a refugee camp in Jordan – even if the child were recognised a refugee and even though his parents were themselves refugees. Families in these situations can currently be reunited only by resorting to desperately unsafe irregular journeys, sometimes ending in avoidable tragedies.
