Inter-faith Wales

Inter-faith Wales is an umbrella term which includes three separate bodies:

There is a clear need to foster a sense of shared Welsh citizenship and lively engagement, which can encourage people to look beyond their individual communities. Faith and spiritual communities can play an important role in the future of a vibrant and cohesive Wales, and Inter-faith Wales hopes to help that happen.

Membership of the Faith Communities Forum and Inter-faith Council is open to representatives of the following faiths:
Bahá’í, Buddhism, Christianity (Church in Wales, Churches Together in Wales - Cytûn, Evangelical Alliance Wales, Free Church Council, Roman Catholic Church in Wales), Hinduism, Islam, Jainism, Judaism, Sikhism and Zoroastrianism.

Currently there are no recognised Jain or Zoroastrian Communities in Wales.

There is also a new seat on the Inter-faith Council for faith and spiritual communities not included in the 9 faiths currently recognised by the Interfaith Network for the UK.
