Interfaith Scotland is the national interfaith organisation for Scotland.
We work to help ensure good relations between Scotland’s diverse religion and belief communities.
We also share good practice in interfaith dialogue, education, engagement and training nationally and internationally.
We were honoured to win Charity of the Year at the Scottish Charity Awards in June 2025.
We are proud to be part of a movement striving for peace and building a more welcoming and inclusive Scotland for all.
