The Caritas programme runs through six key themes of Catholic Social Teaching to help the trainee Ambassadors to think about social justice issues in our local community, before taking them through responding by developing and running their own social action project. It also introduces them to the work of Caritas Westminster, offering practical examples of how they use Catholic Social Teaching to influence their own work.

The Caritas Ambassadors become leaders of social action in our school, and responsible for sharing what they have learnt with those around them. They will share the work of Caritas Westminster with others, but especially share their increased understanding of the issues faced by our local community, and how we and their fellow pupils can address these to create a fairer society.
