Join us for on the hour 5-minute offerings, from 7am till 7pm, on Monday 22nd September, to mark the dedication of the Peace Bench, a collaboration with the University’s Chancellor’s fund, University’s Interfaith Chaplaincy, the UNESCO Chair on RIELA, the Staff from Estates and Buildings and the Galgael Trust, a beautiful accompaniment to the Peace Tree planted by @UNESCO-RIELA colleagues last year.  

We hope that the bench will provide a place for those who wish to reflect on and pray for peace, or simply to enjoy a moment of calm on our busy campus. All welcome to join us for this special celebration. Culminating with the Chapel Choir, there will be reflections, music and actions for peace, the planting of a Peace Pole, cups of tea and coffee and times for silence, stories, and ceremonies.
