At Beauchamp College, Oadby, this evening for the final panning meeting for the college's "Together" interfaith event on Sunday 20 November.
I'm glad to see that the newly elected of the Council of Faiths, Inderjit Gugnani, is here when I arrive (although he doesn't introduce himself as such when we go round the table at the start of the meeting). Inderjit is Community Development Worker with Leicestershire County Council's Library Service.
Leicester Council of Faiths has participated in this event from its second year onward. This is recognised in the meeting, unexpectedly, when Chris Swann (who has been behind the events) asks if we have any recommendations for improvement. All I can say is that they are cramming an awful lot into an awfully short time: the event last only three hours. Unfortunately, it can't start any earlier or it would eat into times of Sunday morning church services, so the only option is to extend the hours a little later in the afternoon. but not this year.
I grab a few minutes at the end of the meeting to speak about the Council of Faiths' activities and events for Inter Faith Week, distribute flyers to attendees and sign up a few more potential volunteers for the Highcrosss exhibition rota.
