The UK Bahá'í Community
The UK Bahá'í community exists in every corner of the UK, from industrial cities like London and Manchester, to rural villages in Cornwall and the Shetland Isles. Around the UK, Bahá'ís are striving to work together with friends and neighbours to contribute to the betterment of their communities. For more on the UK Bahá'í community, click here.
The OPA, as well as representing the UK Bahá'í community, is also a limb of the National Spiritual Assembly of the UK Bahá'í community.
The National Spiritual Assembly, the national governing council of the UK Bahá’í community guides the affairs of the Bahá’í community at the national level. The National Assembly is an elected body comprising of nine members who are elected annually by secret ballot. Each year Bahá’ís over the age of 21 participate in Bahá’í elections, which are free of any trace of electioneering, canvassing, or propaganda.
