Iain Duncan Smith interview

Rt Hon Iain Duncan Smith MP, CSJ Chairman, gave a wide ranging interview to an audience of over 500 in West London on 25 March 2010.

The interview at Holy Trinity Brompton, an Anglican Church in Knightsbridge, was an opportunity to talk about the work of the Centre for Social Justice and the role that the voluntary sector and faith based groups can play in social transformation.
