We are an international charity, formed by the parents of 12-year-old Tim Parry and three-year-old Johnathan Ball, both of whom were tragically killed in the 1993 IRA Warrington bombing. Based at the Peace Centre in Warrington, we run specialist programmes helping victims of terrorism, conflict and political violence to take something positive from their traumatic experience and promote peace. With terrorism on the increase, the need for our unique For Peace services has never been greater.
The Foundation campaigns only for one thing, for peace. That is to say that conflict is inevitable, but using violence is not. We believe that to tackle serious violent conflict (terrorism, political violence, war), you have to deal with the prevention, resolution and response - the before, during and after, so our services are designed around these three areas.
