Its founder organisations are: Jain Sangha of Europe, Jain Academy and Ahimsa for Quality of Life (all independent charities). Its governance is carried out as per the rules of the Charity Commissioner, Company House and in accordance with the management enshrined in the Jain tradition.

Its mission is to improve the spiritual and physical quality of life for Jain and wider community. Its vision is to bring awareness of Jainism and its values to the Western world, to provide multiple Jain temples under one roof, facilities, resources and services to Jains and the wider community.

Its purpose is to develop the Jain Community, its infrastructure for the spiritual and physical needs (including a place of worship and study for all Jains), and awareness of Jainism in the wider community. It aims to establish a multifaith centre for the nine historical major faiths recognised in the UK (Baha’i, Buddhist, Christian, Hindu, Islam, Jain, Jewish, Sikh, Zoroastrian), to advance knowledge and mutual
understanding of these faiths and provide community services for all.

It also aims to organise educational and philanthropic activities as laid down in the Jain tradition. It represents Jain views to the government, statutory authorities, interfaith organisations and educational institutions.

The major project of the Jain Network is the development of the Jain Centre London.
