Inter Faith Week provides a great opportunity for inter faith organisations to highlight the inter faith work they carry out year-round and to draw new people into this.

Local inter faith bodies are  involved in inter faith work all year round, but having a single Week where most inter faith groups and faith forums are taking part throughout England, Wales and Northern Ireland (and a week later in Scotland) provides a focal point for the public, opening up inter faith activity to a wider audience. It also raises the profile of local work.
