Church in Action Survey 2020

Based on a survey completed by over 1,000 Anglican clergy, this report examines how churches have responded to the unique challenges generated by the pandemic.

The report finds that nearly 8 in 10 churches are running or actively supporting a food bank or related provision, in some cases for the first time - and nearly 7 in 10 are offering pastoral support. 37% of church leaders said that their parish was doing more in response to rising need, including the provision of practical, emotional, financial, and digital support.
