THE EAST OF ENGLAND FAITHS AGENCY CIC

REGIONAL INTER FAITH GROUPS

EEFA is a community interest company accountable to Directors
from around the East of England Region.

We have all been saddened and concerned by the closure of the Inter Faith Network UK.  Its demise leaves a hole almost too large to be filled.  It brought together, faith leaders, inter faith groups and individuals who were all committed to the inter faith agenda.

The East of England Faiths Agency CIC came into being to enable faith groups to play their part in the Regional Government ‘experiment’ and it has made a significant contribution to faith and diversity awareness training around the region.  Its activities were curtailed by Covid and we, its directors, have recently been considering its future.

The loss of IFNUK offers a challenge to EEFA to make a Regional contribution to the inter faith agenda.  There is value in local inter faith groups sharing ideas and topics for discussions and events.   EEFA is offering to facilitate this by becoming a hub, using its web site to carry current information on the activities of all the groups in the region.

If there was a call for it, it could hold an annual jamboree for representatives of the inter faith groups to come together and stimulate each other in their pursuits.
