John Kirkby founded Christians Against Poverty, CAP, in 1996, combining his 17 years’ experience in the consumer finance industry with his personal experience of being in overwhelming debt. His faith-filled journey through CAP’s early years is recorded in the book Nevertheless.

His vision to see lives transformed and set free from poverty has led to CAP being built not just in the UK but also in Australia, New Zealand, Canada and most recently in the USA. John now speaks at conferences and churches around the world. He was awarded a Commander of the British Empire (CBE) in 2018 at Buckingham Palace by Her Majesty The Queen for his work and is an honorary Doctor of Bradford University.
