Mixed faith marriage

Hi – could I put in a media request please?

I am a freelance journalist and writer who is 'authoring' two ten-minute films for the BBC's new Sunday morning faith and ethics show on growing up in a mixed faith family. In my case, it was Pakistani/Islam and English/Christianity. I am looking back at my experience and fast forwarding to now - how do families negotiate their mixed faiths today? The themes will be handled in a mature and sensitive manner. The faiths I am considering are xtian/sikh; xtian/hindu; xtian/islam; xtian/jewish.

I would like to talk to mixed faith couples who would talk to me on camera about the great things about their different faiths converging in their relationship. I also need to talk to mixed heritage individuals growing up in mixed faith homes - what is their experience?

Are any of you interested in contributing to the debate about the growth of mixed faith households in the UK?

Many thanks in advance
