We have really missed seeing you all since our last event back in February, it feels like it has been much longer!

Tonight the interfaith committee met for the first time since Coronavirus hit us back in March and it was really great to connect and start discussing the green shoots our exit from ‘hibernation’.

We have now confirmed that we will hold our re-scheduled AGM virtually via Zoom on Wednesday 5th August 2020, further details to be published nearer the time. The AGM will be followed by a virtual tour of a holy site of interest.

We are looking at what type of events and activities we might be able to organise for later in the year and would love to hear from our members on what they would like to see, given it is unlikely we will be able to organise any significant physical gatherings until much later in the year. Please participate in the poll or add your thoughts/ comments below.

The UK Government has published some guidance on the safe use of places of Worship from July 4th.

We hope you find this useful.

We hope to be in touch with news of our events for the rest of this year in the near future.

In light of the developing medical advice and ongoing updates on Coronavirus, we have made the difficult decision to postpone our AGM, scheduled for 25th March 2020.

The Swindon Interfaith Committee will confirm new arrangements for the AGM as soon as practically possible.

In the meantime, please stay safe and well.

Please keep interacting with us via our Facebook page, it’s important now – more than ever to keep the dialogue going and stay in touch!
