About
Spirit of Peace is a rapidly developing UK based charity, with a heartfelt vision to foster greater peace and equality in our global society. Contributing to the creation of a culture of nonviolence in our fractured world it is influenced by the ideals of Mahatma Gandhi, Dr Martin Luther King and others.
We work with renowned international peace partners, with the main thrust of our peace work currently being in the UK and the Middle East.
Our work is people and heart centred, recognising that, in the words of Mahatma Gandhi, “We must be the change we wish to see in the world”. This is a challenging prospect, but every step we take towards peace is significant, however large or small. Many people on experiencing our work and events describe these as’ transformational’ and ‘life-changing’.
Due to the resignation of a Trustee and the expansion of our work there is the opportunity to join our board as a trustee.
