Universities and Colleges Christian Fellowship

Universities and Colleges Christian Fellowship (UCCF; also UCCF: The Christian Unions) is a UK-based charity that was founded in 1928 as the Inter-Varsity Fellowship of Evangelical Unions. The UCCF endorses a conservative evangelical form of Christian theology.

UCCF's dual aims are:

1. To advance the evangelical Christian faith amongst students, graduates and former members of universities; and
2. To promote biblical scholarship and research.

To achieve its aims, UCCF undertakes three main areas of activity:

1. Encouraging and supporting leaders of affiliated Christian Unions (CUs) throughout the UK to engage in evangelism and help Christian students grow in their faith.
2. Publishing and distributing a wide range of Christian resources through its Inter-Varsity Press (IVP) subsidiary, based in Nottingham (not to be confused with the US-based InterVarsity Press).
3. Supporting biblical research, mostly at postgraduate level.

The Christian Unions provide opportunities for fellowship, bible study and evangelism, with nearly 40,000 students attending outreach events each year.
