Director of Research Chris Baker says ‘This anniversary is a big deal for the Foundation as we were a chief contributor Faith in the City via the involvement of one of our previous Directors, Professor John Atherton. The original report highlighted the forgotten issues of poverty and marginalisation in post-industrial Britain that was a stain on the conscience of both nation and church. We are thrilled to be able to critically explore the legacy of this landmark document in collaboration with Ripon College, Cuddesdon.’
