Story

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;">Ray Davey founded The Corrymeela Community in 1965 assisted by students from Queens University, Belfast. His experiences as a prisoner of war convinced him that there was an alternative to violent conflict; the cultural and sometimes volatile changes of the 1960&rsquo;s were the final impetus. Ray decided to create a place where people from different cultures and backgrounds could meet together and experience new ways of dealing with &lsquo;difference.&rsquo; <br></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;">Ray Davey&rsquo;s legacy was to create opportunities for young people to engage with one another in new and meaningful ways.<span>&nbsp; </span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;">&nbsp;In recognition of his life&rsquo;s work, Corrymeela will<span>&nbsp; </span>direct<span>&nbsp; </span>any donations and gifts received in lieu of flowers to the Ray Davey Youth Fund. </span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;">Thanks for taking the time to visit Corrymeela's&nbsp;JustGiving page.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;">Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.
