Ethos
AFC’s support and advice are available to all faith communities and faith-based community-orientated organisations in West Yorkshire that are willing to share its ethos of respect, partnership and commitment to the wider community.
Organisations are expected to:
- Be in sympathy with AFC’s aims and approach without having to compromise the integrity of their own faith – respecting diversity and partnership across faith and cultural boundaries as ways of effecting community regeneration and renewal, and social cohesion.
- Agree and keep to the stipulations of any agreement or contract entered into
- Intend to work for the benefit of the wider community rather than exclusively for their own adherents.
AFC recognises that in some situations it may not be appropriate to work directly in partnerships across faith boundaries. However, AFC expects a willingness to share experience with others and participate in AFC events.
