The Evangelical Alliance council is a group of women and men from across the evangelical spectrum who support the organisation in its work.

Council is made up of church leaders, heads of organisations and key influencers from across the evangelical community in the UK. Members meet twice a year to hear about and engage with the work of the Evangelical Alliance, as well as to explore the issues affecting Christians.
