The British Humanist Association (BHA) is a charity based in the United Kingdom that promotes humanism, a philosophy that emphasizes reason, ethics, and justice without reliance on religious beliefs. Founded in 1896, the BHA advocates for a secular society where individuals can lead fulfilling lives based on shared human values. The organization provides support for those who identify as non-religious and works to influence public policy on issues such as education, equality, and freedom of belief. The BHA also offers resources and guidance for humanist ceremonies, including weddings and funerals, reflecting its commitment to celebrating human life and values.
