Diary dates !!
Interfaith Week 14th - 21st November
Owing to the success of last year's Interfaith Buddies Scheme, we are planning on running this scheme again during Interfaith week. The scheme involves two people of different faiths holding a conversation to share their thoughts on topics related to their faith. This is an opportunity for sharing and learning, on a one-to-one basis across a limited period of time although the process may, of course, lead to longer term conversations and new forms of practical co-operation. More information coming soon!
