Interfaith project launched after grant support
Somerset Guardian
|September 11, 2025
A new community engagement project - with a special focus on interfaith dialogue - is being launched across Bath and North East Somerset with the aim of bringing a diverse range of groups and faith traditions together.
-
Run by the B&NES Faith Foundation, the initiative will see a variety of events and activities being organised across the district over the next 12 months.
The project has been made possible thanks to a £4,000 grant from the Hibbert Trust - a UK-wide philanthropic organisation that for the past 150 years has been dedicated to promoting the study and exploration of religious ideas, freedom of expression and interfaith dialogue.
