Getting Involved Is Easy

We will be pleased to hear from like-minded people and organisations who want to participate in some of our projects. If you want to know more, please get in touch with us via the ‘Contact Us’ form.

Cooperation Circles

We hope to see more UK-based interfaith initiatives choosing to become Cooperation Circles affiliated with URI UK. There is no membership fee and no obligation to attend meetings. Still, you will be connected to an immense network of like-minded people worldwide, with multiple opportunities for partnerships and joint projects. To become a Cooperation Circle, your group must have at least seven members from at least three religious backgrounds (including humanism). It should also agree to abide by the URI Charter.  To find out how, please email [email protected].

Thank you for the great support for our work
