Get to know us
Since 1989, we came together as a group of different faiths and religious backgrounds to contribute to the promotion of mutual respect and understanding between faith communities and aim to respond to the new & changing ethnic and faith mix of population in York.
We meet on a monthly basis (1st Tuesday of every month), where we discuss different intellectual topic every time. We also have a week full of daily events (Interfaith Week) in November every year. Below, you can meet the team, and read our statement.
Interfaith Statement for the Millennium
We commit ourselves,

uniting to build a better society,
grounded in values and ideals we share:
community,
personal integrity,
a sense of right and wrong,
learning, wisdom and love of truth,
care and compassion,
justice and peace,
respect for one another,
for the earth and its creatures.
We commit ourselves,
in a spirit of friendship and co-operation,
