Tackling Global Poverty
with people, not projects

As Christians, we believe everyone should be free from poverty and free to live life in all its fullness. We are led by our partners who know their context, problems and solutions, better than we ever could. They are the visionaries and it is our privilege to walk alongside them.

What if the thing you love doing could change someone’s life?

Step Up is WDR’s invitation to turn everyday passions into purposeful action!

Whether it’s a coffee morning, sponsored walk, bake sale, quiz night, craft fair, or a reading challenge, you can use what you love to support WDR partners tackling global poverty. 

There’s no set challenge, just choose your activity, set your goal, and make it your own!
Families, churches, youth groups, and individuals can all get involved together,

Every Step Up event helps provide clean water, food security, education, and opportunities for communities around the world.

Last year, supporters raised £28,000/€32,300 so we’re looking forward to another great Step Up campaign!
