The Oxford Foundation has been actively involved in the design and creation of this programme in partnership with the Edward Cadbury Centre for the Public Understanding of Religion, University of Birmingham, and a number of other faith organisations. This programme is fully funded by the UK Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG), as a result of which it is free to all participants, although we are having to limit entry to 4 persons per organisation.
