Unitarians have a distinguished history of supporting their local communities and social justice regionally, nationally and internationally.

Brixton & Norwood Foodbank
Central to our corporate and individual spiritual practice, is our in-service foodbank collection on the first Sunday of each month.
Nationally
Unitarians have led and supported many important social justice campaigns, including anti-slavery, religious and parliamentary reform, and more recently marriage equality for same-sex couples, including the right to marry in supportive places of worship. We remain the only such venue licensed to conduct same sex weddings in Brixton
Internationally
We support the work of the International Council of Unitarian Universalists (ICUU) (our minister holds the ICUU Leadership Certificate, after studies at the Unitarian Academy, Cluj, Transylvania) and International Association for Religious Freedom (IARF) and regularly raise substantial funds for relief efforts around the world, eg Syria (White Helmets) and Ukraine (Red Cross).
