<p>The Friendly Group of Spiritual Healers Associations is a group of more than twenty associations (see Organisations), which represent spiritual healers. The Group is non-profit making, independent and autonomous; the Group meets regularly to discuss current events and issues within the spiritual healing field.
<p>The main aims of the Group are to:
<ul type="square">
<li type="square">to promote, and maintain, ideals and values that are shared rather than imposed;
<li type="square">to make decisions by consensus, not imposition;
<li type="square">to be well-informed about current national ideas on healing and subsequent politics;
<li type="square">to self-regulate and update standards of practice by discussion and agreement;
<li type="square">to encourage other associations who, currently, are not part of any national organisation to join us;
</ul>
<p class="finish">and to promote the healing movement to the public and to monitor the changing face of healing, on a national level, so that informed decisions can be made.
<p>The "Friendly Group" represents approximately two thousand full and probationer healers. Whilst each organisation is independent of each other, all are covered by the same insurance policy and share similar ideals and values concerning the Code of Conduct, Training Practices and Complaints Procedures.
<p>The Friendly Group is a group of associations who are truly generous in spirit, being prepared to share ideas, information, knowledge and expertise, etc. for the benefit of everyone; to be aware of current ideas, events and attitudes that concern healing for the purpose of mutual benefit whilst maintaining their independence and autonomy.
<p>We came together because we are like-minded; we care what happens to not only the healers in our own associations but also to all healers in this country and if, in some small way we can help to make a difference, we will try.
