Roberts felt that the General Assembly of Unitarian and Free Christian Churches British Unitarian movement had two main streams of belief Liberal Christian and Humanist adequately represented, but that another mode of thought that was not formally represented, a Nature Earth Creation centred religious voice. The UESN provides a forum and creative expression for this and has become a recognised, credible part of the British Unitarian movement.

For a while, it became the Unitarian New Age Network but still, members remained unhappy with this title.
