Safeguarding Month - Interfaith Week

Talking here to Councillor Andrew Harper (Barnet Cabinet Member with responsibility for children's services). November is Barnet's Safeguarding Month - and I was invited to speak at the Barnet Multi-Faith Forum event at Hendon Town Hall, to mark Inter-Faith Week. Additional panel members were the Mayor of Barnet and the Chief of Police. A great opportunity to talk about www.thefaithbook.co.uk and all the safeguarding work underway in faith communities.

The most inspiring and enlightening part of the evening involved young people from 4 secondary schools talking about what their faith, and the concept of inter-faith, means to them. A really great evening - with lots to think about.
