The Christians Against Poverty (CAP) Life Skills Course is a free, community-based programme designed to equip individuals with practical skills for everyday living. Aimed at helping people thrive on a low income, the course focuses on building confidence, making money go further, and improving overall wellbeing.
Delivered through local churches, the CAP Life Skills Course runs over several weeks in a friendly, supportive group setting. Each session covers essential topics such as budgeting, shopping on a budget, cooking healthy meals, maintaining good relationships, and looking after mental and physical health. The course is interactive and includes group discussions, practical activities, and one-on-one support where needed.
What makes CAP Life Skills unique is its holistic approach—addressing not just financial literacy but also emotional and social wellbeing. Participants learn how to manage life’s pressures more effectively and are encouraged to set personal goals and build positive habits.
Trained CAP Life Skills Coaches lead the sessions in a welcoming, non-judgmental environment, making it accessible to people from all walks of life. While rooted in Christian values, the course is open to everyone, regardless of background or beliefs. It’s an empowering program that helps individuals take positive steps towards a more stable, confident, and fulfilled life.
