Social and Financial Inclusion

Social Inclusion

TCT works with many partners to build up individuals and communities. We are currently working in a number of areas of social inclusion:

Wolverhampton Poverty Truth

Wolverhampton Poverty Truth gave people with lived experience of poverty a chance to work with Civic and businesses leaders to create lasting change.

Modern Slavery

It takes a whole community to recognise and respond to Modern Slavery and say #weseeyou to those affected by this awful crime.

Wolverhampton and Walsall Anti-Slavery Partnership

A partnership approach to tackling modern slavery in Wolverhampton and Walsall Chaired by TCT.

Hate Crime

Hate Crime is vastly under reported, but we want people to be helped by training Churches and other community buildings to be able to recognise and report this distressing crime.

Homelessness

Homelessness is on the rise and it’s only by coming together and forming strong networks that we can start to tackle it.

Food Poverty

Food poverty is a day-to-day reality for more and more people in the UK, with one in four parents skipping meals in order to make ends meet. And the problems are often worse during the school holidays.

Financial Inclusion

Our Just Finance Black Country work is helping to create a movement for financial inclusion in the Black Country.

Times are hard for people and many in our communities are experiencing financial distress, particularly those on low incomes. We are creating a movement for financial inclusion in the Black Country, partnering with the Just Finance Foundation nationally.

We organise sessions to teach people about budgeting and money management, and to help build their financial confidence.

We also organise events, do policy influencing work and campaigns with local partners.
