A former team leader at the Christian charity UCCF apologises for her part in developing an “unhealthy” culture that “damaged” employees
During the past year, the body which oversees Christian Unions in the UK, UCCF have faced an internal investigation linked to two of their Directors and possible breaches of employment law.
In October 2023, the organisation released a statement explaining the outcome of the investigation. It read: “The Trustees and Directors apologise unreservedly to those employees whose experiences fell short of what they were entitled to expect from UCCF, and for the hurt caused”.
Around the time of the statement’s release, a large number of trustees all resigned their positions.
