eaders from a variety of religion communities throughout the UK have come collectively to encourage Britons to volunteer over the coronation weekend as a part of the Big Help Out.
The marketing campaign will happen on Monday May 8, a financial institution vacation, and goals to encourage and recruit a brand new era of volunteers by exhibiting how straightforward it's to become involved.
In an open letter, leaders from the UK’s Christian, Muslim, Jewish, Hindu, Sikh, Buddhist, Bahai, Jain and Zoroastrian communities have known as on individuals of all faiths to have interaction with the Big Help Out and “make a real difference”.
“The voluntary efforts of our communities are both internal and external,” the letter states.
“We believe that our obligations to others go beyond our own communities and encompass the whole of society. Whilst we come from different faiths, we are bound together by a shared national identity.
“We appreciate the role HM The King has played as a charitable leader and entrepreneur. He has championed volunteering as well as inter-faith harmony.
“The Big Help Out, over the Coronation Weekend, is a special opportunity to rededicate our communities to volunteering and service. We encourage our communities, along with the entire nation, to take part.”
The UK’s religion communities excel at volunteering and bringing individuals collectively. That’s why we're enthusiastic about what they will and can contribute to the Big Help Out
Brendan Cox, co-founder of the Together Coalition which is organising the Big Help Out, stated: “The continued support from faith leaders and groups, representing millions of people all over the UK, reflects the huge backing for the Big Help Out.
“The UK’s faith communities excel at volunteering and bringing people together. That’s why we are excited about what they can and will contribute to the Big Help Out.”
Opportunities out there for the Big Help Out embrace an opportunity to volunteer with the Sikh Charity Feed My City Manchester and take part in a seaside clean-up led by the Archbishop of Wales.
