For a healthy society, children need an understanding of those from other traditions.
Building Bridges Burnley, an organisation strongly supported by Bishop Philip, provides a unique service of faith visitors to Lancashire schools. Visits promote interfaith and cultural understanding for both pupils and staff but more volunteers are needed, especially Christians, to meet demand.
Training is necessary, with two sessions planned for Thursday 26 September and Tuesday 1 October from 10am to 1pm each day at the Xaverian Centre, Sharoe Green Lane, Preston.
