The brave & talented women of Afghanistan are devastated this morning as the Taliban prevent them from entering their universities following the BAN on female university education.

This is horrifying to watch. This isn’t right. We mustn’t stay silent.

Love it when leaders come together to deliver for their communities!

Asim @MasjidIbrahimUK and @gonzagaflopes @StMartin_Tours just met to discuss a powerful initiative for the people of Newham.

We're truly greater than the sum of our parts. @NewhamCitizens #togetherstronger

Great to take part in the interfaith week and more specifically in the interfaith supper organised by Newham Council. Encouraging words from Canon Ann Easter and Sir Stephen Timms.

A joy to welcome Bishop Guli Francis-Dehqani to baptise 2 and confirm 20 people at St Martin’s Church, Plaistow. The official attendance at this service was the highest ever recorded in a joint service: 202 people.
