Groups of school children from different schools presented their art, sport and citizenship projects, all as part of Project Unity, a London-wide programme of youth inter-cultural activities being driven forward by TUFF to mark the First World War centenary. Nitin Palan of the Golden Tours Foundation a local Kensington business presented the project with a donation to enable them to buy new kit.<\/p>

Among the speakers were Great Master Chin, who said, \u201cWe live in troubled times, but those who would do harm in the name of misinterpreted or twisted religion are greatly outnumbered by people for whom religion is a source not of hatred and violence but of peace, comfort and good acts. We people of goodwill must ensure that our voice is the louder one, and that our young people choose the correct path.\u201d<\/p>

Archbishop Kevin McDonald, Roman Catholic Archbishop Emeritus of Southwark, said this is such a historic moment and such events are very important for our young British society.<\/p>

Speaking later, Rabbi Edwin Shukar, Vice President of the European Jewish Council, said \u201cI appreciated being in the presence of so many men of faith and leaders of communities. The atmosphere and energy in the hall was amazing. I believe everyone left richer than when they walked in.\u201d Referring to TUFF he added, \u201cIt is miraculous how an enterprise that was started by a few people can grow into an organisation that one day will make our world a better place to live in.\u201d<\/p>

Anna Prior and Dr Shamender Talwar, founders of The Unity of Faiths Foundation (TUFF), said \u201cWe are delighted that the event went off so well. We were so honoured to hear from Great Master Chin Kung and there was a real energy in the room. Our charity exists to promote unity within diversity and the conference has planted the seeds for much important new work.\u201d<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
