For over 25 years the UK Christian Handbook has been the directory of Christian organisations and church headquarters. It has steadily grown over the years and now has nearly 6,000 address listed.
How can I get my organisation listed on UKCH Online?
If your organisation is not already listed in the printed or online edition you can apply for inclusion in future editions. The printed edition is updated every two years, the online version is updated monthly.
Every application for inclusion is considered by an editorial team using the criteria outlined below in the section entitled "Criteria for Inclusion".

Criteria for Inclusion
Organisations are normally only listed if they:
- are Trinitarian, that is, they accept the historic formulary of the Godhead as the three eternal persons, God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit, in one unchanging Essence. A fuller statement is available on request
- offer a definitive Christian product, service or function, that is the nature of their output or work reflects their belief and could not be adequately performed without it
- do not operate or trade under their own individual name (musical artistes, evangelists and similar occupations apart), so that their listing represents an identifiable organisation, however small, rather than the work or interest of one or two persons
- work in a wide geographical area, that is they are serving the wider Body of Christ and not only one local church. Individual churches are usually only included if they are also the headquarters for their denomination in the UK.
- Specific ministries within organisations are only included separately upon payment of a fee.
Disclaimer: In spite of the above, the Editors reserve the right to make the final decision as to the inclusion of any organisation, and to the information included about each organisation. The editors have not verified whether each entry fulfils all the criteria.
