Citizens UK information


Citizens UK is a grassroots alliance of local communities working together in England and Wales.

The organisation has 18 chapters across England and one in Wales. These are made up of local institutions, including schools, universities, churches, mosques, synagogues, parent groups, health trusts, charities, and unions.[1] They also support a Guild of Community Organisers and the Centre for Civil Society.[2]

They have worked on several campaigns, including building up over £2 billion[3] of wages through the UK Living Wage campaign, winning a legal cap on the cost of credit, and ending the detention of children for immigration purposes. They have previously campaigns in areas including the Living Wage Foundation,[4] Parents and Communities Together (PACT),[5] and Sponsor Refugees.[6] In 2023, campaigns include Climate Change, Homelessness, Housing, anti-Misogyny and school-based counselling.[7]

In September 2018, Matthew Bolton became the new Executive Director of Citizens UK.[8]
