Established by William Wilberforce and a group from HTC in 1804, the Bible Society has been one of our longest running partners, founded to make the Bible available throughout the world. Globally, we now work through the fellowship of United Bible Societies in supporting the translation and distribution of the Scriptures; our particular focus is on China, the Middle East and some of the most challenging regions of Africa.

More recently, we've pivoted to focus also on our national needs. We want to mobilise the Church for domestic mission, grow catalysing leaders who can operate in different cultural spheres and engage people who are spiritually open. Our goal is to see Christians confident in the Scriptures, a changed conversation about the Bible in wider culture, and the transformative embodiment of the Bible in the world. In line with this vision, HTC is supporting the work of the Bible Society in Brixton Prison, helping to support a Bible course developed for prisoners local to us in South London
