Find your local contacts here. A-Z by borough. If you are a local contact yourself, add your details in a comment so that they can be added to the list. A-Z by borough.
Some local authorities and borough police employ an officer to link up with local religious groups and multifaith networks. London Resilience has Emergency Planning Officers (sometimes with different titles) in each borough – find your contact in the list below. Church contacts can be found here.
If your borough includes areas eligible for funding under the Near Neighbours Programme, you’ll find a link to a map and contact details for your local coordinator. Near Neighbours supports local groups working to bring together neighbours to develop relationships across diverse faiths & ethnicities in order to improve their communities.
Where they exist, Local Strategic Partnerships sometimes have a faith rep. Many faith forums and multifaith groups in London have a working relationship with their local council, borough police, NHS Trusts and CCGs, prisons and other public bodies.

A very good resource, and well done. The Camden Faith Communities Partnership website is: http://www.cfcp.org.uk/ and the e-mail address is: enquiries [at] cfcp.org.uk with the Secretary being, Sheikh Dr Muhammad Al-Hussaini
This is a great resource.
Readers may be interested in a Barnet project http://www.thefaithbook.co.uk a directory of faith based youth work in the borough – including resources for youth leaders and those interested in multi-faith activities.
Let me know what you think.
Best wishes
Karen
