A NEW newsletter celebrating the different faiths in Dudley has been launched thanks to a lottery grant.
Dudley Borough Interfaith Network will be distributing 5,000 copies of the four-page publication, which is hoped will be read by people of all faiths and those without.
The newsletter, which has been funded through a £5,000 Big Lottery Awards for All grant, contains articles by various faith leaders and followers and aims to break down barriers about the religions, which are often caused by misinformation and mistrust.
One page in the publication has also been designed by young people especially for children.
The newsletter will be available at faith centres, community buildings and public places and is being officially launched at an interfaith event at the Wellington Road Community Centre at 7pm tonight (Wednesday).
