The branch in Sheffield has been ambitious in working hand in hand with people of other faiths to dispel myths and share good practice. The launch of National Interfaith Week, where Sheffield’s coordinator was invited to the House of Parliament, in addition to giving talks at local churches was a highlight. ISB’s work within Sheffield City Council, has helped facilitate homeless dinners, food banks and more. Great things on the horizon, as Sheffield has upcoming events focusing on the care for our planet in addition to embarking on more interfaith work.

Sheffield is an inspiring Branch to be part of, especially because of our long term commitment to inter faith relations in Sheffield and beyond. In the current climate communities faith and none come together to talk about issues affecting the city and work together to build relationships of strength, this unity is drawn upon during difficult times and celebrated on key dates in the year. A few examples of our efforts are provided below: Radical living >> Interfaith dialogue Inter Faith Week 2015 Food banks Peace & Unity Walk 2015: Honouring the ordinary – A fantastic show of solidarity by the people[…..]
