Does activism really work? 

threadsis a collective of Christians from all walks of life who are living, working and trying to carve out our identity in our worlds.We are artists and bankers. We are singles, and we’re marrieds. We are visionaries and geeks, hilarious and deadly serious.We are scratching our heads about faith and life and what they have to say about each other. We are curious. We are wrestling with questions where there used to be answers, and are passionate about working it out together. We are celebrating each other’s talents.We know our lives can be broken and dislocated and we also know Jesus is the ultimate fixer. We are humble, becausewe are not worthy. So we’re not judges, and we don’t do platitudes. Life can be full of knots, but we’re living it to the full.We’re inspired, and we’re hopeful. We arethreads.www.threadsuk.com

Is it possible to bring about the transformation we long to see in society?
threads is teaming up with CSW's Pursue Justice Generation, and gathering together a bunch of activists, dreamers, thinkers and leaders - people just like us, in fact - with a heart to see change in our world, and stories to share. We want to leave you feeling challenged, inspired and equipped in your visions for a better society - and with the courage and motivation to start where you're at, today.
We'll be hearing from a range of speakers, including speaker, author and founder of Home For Good Krish Kandiah. We will also be joined by leadership consultant, charity leader and entrepreneur Naomi Telfer, who works to provide innovative solutions to the problem of human trafficking in the UK, and Claire Denman, CSW’s public affairs officer. She briefs journalists and policy makers, including at the UN and in the UK Parliament on religious freedom and human rights. Jonathan Mitchell, founder of ethical menswear shop Brothers We Stand, will also explain a little bit more about his campaigning journey.
