ABOUT US
Beacon of Peace was founded to serve humanity without regard to colour, creed, nationality, or race. Our mission is to alleviate suffering, assist those in need, foster community cohesion, support humanitarian initiatives, bring people together, enhance understanding, and promote peace among people from all walks of life.
Beacon of Peace is an initiative of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Elders Association, part of the UK’s oldest established Muslim community. Originally known as Charity Walk For Peace (CWFP), the name and branding were updated in 2024 to Beacon of Peace (BoP) to reflect the expanded scope of fundraising events beyond charity walks and to illustrate a broader horizon of reach and global humanitarian projects.
Since its inception in 1985, the charity walk has been held at various venues across the UK, attracting thousands of participants annually. Millions of pounds have been raised and distributed to over 600 UK registered charities and used to support humanitarian projects. Numerous regional charity receptions, walks, and events are organized throughout the UK, culminating in an annual event designed to benefit various charities that provide practical help and support to vulnerable people.
Our goals are to assist society, support charitable endeavours, and demonstrate loyalty to our country and nation. A distinctive feature of Beacon of Peace is that all organizers are unpaid volunteers, ensuring that no administrative costs are deducted from donations. All operational costs are covered by membership subscriptions
