Hello,

Welcome to your monthly No More Faith Schools <[link removed]> campaign update. This month we've been continuing to support residents of Peterborough angry over the imposition of a new discriminatory faith school. You can find out more about this and all our local campaigns on the website.

Since our last update I have been continuing my programme of talks around the country. This month, I am speaking to Windsor Humanists <[link removed]> on Tuesday 9th and to Coventry and Warwickshire Humanists on Wednesday 17th. Talks being online mean that more people can attend, even if they don't have an active local group. But I'm keen to organise more events when it's safe to do so in person.

This month we're highlighting some past testimonials. As always, we're grateful to everyone who's shared their story with us. These help humanise people the impact of faith schools and stop the normalisation of their harms.

Best wishes,

Alastair Lichten
NMFS campaign coordinator
