The next UK General Election is set to be held on Thursday 12 December, 2019.

The election campaign gives Catholic voters a chance to ensure candidates for Parliament address the issues affecting our society’s poorest communities.

We have worked with our sister Caritas agency, CAFOD, to develop some brief guidance for voters to start conversations, published on CAFOD’s website.

On 29 November 2019, the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of England and Wales issued a statement on the General Election.
