City of Sanctuary is made up of people from all faiths and none. The concepts of Sanctuary and Hospitality are thousands of years old and they are evident in Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, the Baha’i Faith, Sikhism and in Hinduism.
Across our network, faith groups support the City of Sanctuary movement and welcome people seeking sanctuary, often providing significant practical support that makes a real difference to their lives.
