Vigil for Peace – 5 November 2023

Candlelit peace vigilViolence and hatred can never be the solution

Vigil for Peace. 5pm, Sunday 5 November

We are aware of the need to draw together the diverse communities of Oxfordshire together in this time and renew bonds of friendship and a common commitment to peace.

Five hundred people of goodwill from across Oxfordshire came together for a vigil for peace in Broad Street in Oxford on Sunday 5 November at 5pm.

There were short reflections, shared grief and words of comfort offered. People lit candles and torches at 5.15pm, standing in silence as an act of solidarity with those who suffer on all sides of the conflict. Watch the BBC South report of the vigil on our YouTube channel.
