We take seriously the special place in God’s heart for the poor and the marginalised, which is why we have a particular interest in work among such people in South Asia. We do this through DFN UK, a humanitarian charity supporting indigenous programmes designed to bring freedom and dignity through education, healthcare, economic empowerment and trafficking prevention among Dalit and other low-caste communities. Several of our members work or volunteer for DFN.
