Understanding Humanism school speakers We have free, trained, and experienced volunteers across England, Wales, and Northern Ireland that can help you and your school.

It's #WorldHumanistDay on 21 June! That means it's a great time of year for your school to book a visit from one of our free, trained school speakers to answer your students' questions about non-religious approaches to life. @natre-update.bsky.social understandinghumanism.org.uk/school-speak...

Great discussion with @lizzicollinge.bsky.social MP about the practical work of advocating for humanist perspectives and a more inclusive, secular state in Westminster.

Thank you for being such a great champion for our campaigns (including legal recognition for humanist marriage)! #Humanists2025

Let humanists speak on BBC Thought for the Day Why is the BBC excluding non-religious voices from Thought for the Day (Radio 4) and Pause for Thought (Radio 2)? These programmes claim to offer β€˜reflections for everyone,’ yet humanist and other non...

Humanist beliefs are not permitted to be broadcast on BBC Radio 4's Thought for the Day. The BBC had a legal requirement to represent everyone equally – not just religious people. If you agree, please lend your support by signing our petition.

Meanwhile, Scotland just marked 20 years of humanist marriages. Since 2005, @humanistsociety.bsky.social celebrants have delivered 50,000 humanist weddings. That’s more than 100,000 people who’ve been able to marry in a way that reflects their beliefs and values.
