Institute for Leadership and Community Development

An amazing interfaith iftar was hosted last night at the Institute for Leadership and Community Development. Some thoughtful words were shared by the Lord Mayor and Deputy Lord-Lieutenant regarding the importance of community and interfaith work. Our guest speakers shared some reflections from their perspective of fasting and a minute of silence also took place to honour those who lost their lives in the Covid-19 pandemic.

We thank everyone who attended and hope to come together again as a community.

Why Interfaith Dialogue? What is it? Why do it? What are its possibilities or limitations?

A free online course delivered in six sessions will explore the ideas relating to interfaith work and interfaith dialogue.
