Julia Bush from Quaker Peace & Social Witness will offer a 1.5 hour learning session on 'Objections to war: a Quaker approach' to mark a hundred years since conscientious objection to military service was enshrined in British law.
Drawing on visual and written archives and present-day reports, the session will comprise:
- a presentation on the range of opposition to warfare by Quakers and others, past and present, and
- a reflective activity, for participants to engage with the realities of acting on conscience and conviction
All welcome.

Refreshments follow, with opportunities to view displays of posters and leaflets and to meet and talk with local Quakers.
