Welcome to the Tim Parry Johnathan Ball Foundation for Peace

The Tim Parry Johnathan Ball Foundation for Peace is a British based charity (charity no.1048990) created by the parents of 12 year old Tim Parry and supported by the parents of 3 year old Johnathan Ball. Both Tim and Johnathan were tragically killed as a direct result of the IRA's 1993 bombing of Warrington (a town in the North West of England) as part of its political agenda to force Britain to withdraw from Northern Ireland . The Foundation receives support from many political figures and our Patrons include the Duchess of Kent and Sir John Major KGCH.

The Foundation promotes the understanding, management and non violent resolution of conflict. Since its formation in 1995, it has worked to enhance relationships and promote respect for diversity.

The Foundation is secular and takes no side in armed conflict. Instead, we help people of all races, faiths and nations to understand the causes, management and non-violent resolution of conflict. The Foundation's sole purpose is to help inspire people to lead more peaceful lives by resolving their conflicts non-violently.

The activities of the Foundation comprise working with key groups:

• Young People and children
• Victims of political violence
• Former military and paramilitary combatants, including former adversaries.

Based in a purpose-built £3million Peace Centre, the Foundation currently operates across the U.K.
