A week to focus on inter faith understanding and cooperation
Inter Faith Week 2017 - an amazing week!
Building good relationships and working partnerships between people of different faiths and beliefs is part of the year-round work of many people and organisations across the UK. Having a special Week provides a focal point, helping to open inter faith activity up to a wider audience so that more and more people are made aware of the importance of this vital work and are able to participate in it.
Inter Faith Week 2017 ended on Sunday 19 November. It was an amazing Week. Thank you to the hundreds of organisations of so many kinds and the thousands of people who have made the week such an amazing and powerful one - reaching out, drawing people of all ages and different backgrounds into conversations and learning opportunities, volunteering, arts events and sport events, schools and campus based activities and so much more.
