The Christian Aid Annual Lecture will be part of the St Martin-in-the-Fields critically acclaimed Autumn Lecture series which, this year, takes the words of Martin Luther ‘Here I am Stand; I can do no other’ as its theme for speakers.
Join us on Monday 6 October 2025. The reception runs from 5.30–6.45pm (by invite only), followed by the lecture from 7–8.30pm.
