The purpose of the Justice & Peace Commission is to raise awareness, campaign and pray about the key social justice issues of our day. It does this throughout the Leeds Catholic diocese (which includes not only Leeds but Bradford, Huddersfield, Halifax, Wakefield, Skipton and Settle). We organise conferences and study days about key social justice issues. We promote action for Justice and Peace through a monthly newsletter and our website. All our events are open to people of all faiths and none.
