Southampton Council of Faiths
Charity no: 1111962

Southampton Council of Faiths ( SCOF ) was set up in May 2001 to promote understanding between faiths in the city. It represents the faith community in dialogue with public bodies.

Seven faiths are represented on the council which meets about eight times a year. Each faith; Baha’i, Buddhist, Christian, Hinduism, Islam, Judaism and Sikhism nominates up to five representatives to the council.

The council discusses issues of mutual concern and recognises the importance of overcoming ignorance and fear.

SCOF organised a memorial event following 9/11 in September 2001 and a united response to the tragic tsunami in the Pacific Ocean after Christmas in 2004.

SCOF and SIFL rely on donations for their work. If you would like to be informed about SIFL activities and meetings please go to our web-site at www.southampton-faiths.org or send an email to SIFL@southampton-faiths.org
