Adult Programme

Main speaker – Natalie Williams, CEO of Jubilee+ 

 

Natalie Williams grew up in relative poverty in the deprived seaside town of Hastings. She is now chief executive of national Christian charity Jubilee+ and speaks and writes on poverty, class, justice, and the mercy of God. Natalie describes her latest book, ‘Tis Mercy All – the power of mercy in a polarised world, as her life’s message. Her previous books include Invisible Divides (on class issues in the church) and The Myth of the Undeserving Poor. Natalie is passionate about the church being a place of overflowing mercy, especially for those trapped in poverty.
