The MWIN was founded in May 2010 as a result of of an informal discussion after a work-shop organised by Doras Luimní and delivered by Dr Marcus Braybrook, President of World congress of faiths. This meeting was held at the Georgian house in May 2010 and sparked interest in the creation of a local interfaith network.
Through our meetings we aim to build an understanding of one another’s faith traditions and to create bonds of friendship and mutual understanding.
