These are short heartfelt offerings drawn from the rich faith traditions of Bradford: Hindu, Sikh, Jewish, Christian and Muslim. Each act is a thread, woven into a shared tapestry of meaning:

  • A prayer, a chant, a reading, a song drawn from the heart of ones tradition.
  • A photo, gently shared in a small circle, telling a story of solidarity and care from our fractured world
  • A closing silence, held together for the healing of our world.

In  a time of marked conflict, division, and deep uncertainty, acts of prayer, courage and solidarity matter. They invite us to remember our shared humanity. In these quiet moments, we strive to kindle hope, renew our resolve to work a better world, and stand together in compassion.
