Faith Covenant for Cornwall

On 13 November 2024, during Interfaith Week, faith groups from across Cornwall came together at Lys Kernow in Truro to sign Cornwall’s new Faith Covenant. This is a joint commitment between Cornwall Council and Cornwall’s faith communities to work together to support Cornwall residents.

The Faith Covenant is a significant milestone in our partnership with our faith communities. It highlights our shared values and the desire to help bring communities together and promote a sense of pride in Cornwall’s diversity. Below are the full and Easy Read versions of the signed Covenant document:
