Press Office

Aid to the Church in Need’s Press Office has access to important Church contacts in more than 130 countries where we support projects.

Using the information we are able to obtain from these contacts, the charity regularly issues press releases. You can read the latest news stories on the Latest News page on this website.

Aid to the Church in Need gives full permission for the media to reproduce and make use of the charity’s press releases on the condition that Aid to the Church in Need is acknowledged as the source when using the material.

Aid to the Church in Need is able to call on a team of skilled and experienced journalists, as well as the expertise of our project heads, who have a detailed knowledge of the Catholic Church in countries around the world.

If you would like to commission an article on a particular subject, or you need expert information on a country or theme, please contact John Pontifex, Aid to the Church in Need UK’s Head of Press and Information, using our Contact form or by calling 020 8642 8668.

We have an extensive archive of photographs which can be used by media outlets. If you require high resolution photographs to accompany our news stories, please contact our Press Office.
