How do you contribute to community cohesion in Sheffield?
Sheffield Faiths Forum is one of a number of partners helping to develop a Community Cohesion Strategy and Action Plan for the city. The Faiths Forum is keen to help individual faith groups and organisations take part in this process and highlight the ongoing work that faith groups across the city are involved in which helps to make Sheffield a more cohesive place to live.
