Story

This event aims to raise funds for the St John of Jerusalem Eye Hospital Group's work in Jerusalem, the West Bank and Gaza by bringing together leaders of three faith communities, Muslim, Jewish and Christian, to demonstrate the humanitarian work of the hospital which is open to all. All proceeds will go towards funding its work in the region.

Dr Edward Kessler MBE is Founder President of the Woolf Institute, Cambridge and a leading thinker in interfaith relations. Ibrahim Mogra is an inam and former Assistant Secretary General of the Muslim Council of Britain.

Our work is strictly humanitarian and we work closely with the Israeli Heath Ministry, Israeli and Christian hospitals as well as the Palestinian Ministry of Health to ensure patients receive care.
