"Make all you can, save all you can, give all you can."

John Wesley

From the Wesleys' work on prison reform and the abolition of the slave trade to a Methodist presence in campaigns such as Make Poverty History, the Fairtrade movement and Jubilee 2000, taking a stand is part of our Methodist heritage. 

Today, Methodist churches around the Connexion reflect this in Our Calling, to be "a good neighbour to people in need and to challenge injustice".
