Story
Ray Davey founded The Corrymeela Community in 1965 assisted by students from Queens University, Belfast. His experiences as a prisoner of war convinced him that there was an alternative to violent conflict; the cultural and sometimes volatile changes of the 1960’s were the final impetus. Ray decided to create a place where people from different cultures and backgrounds could meet together and experience new ways of dealing with ‘difference.’
Ray Davey’s legacy was to create opportunities for young people to engage with one another in new and meaningful ways.
In recognition of his life’s work, Corrymeela will direct any donations and gifts received in lieu of flowers to the Ray Davey Youth Fund.
