​Preparing for DSEI

If you are coming to London to protest the arms fair directly here are a few ways to get involved

Go to the Quaker Roots 'Get involved' page to find out what role you could take. There is also a summary of the key roles on a Volunteer Jamboard.

To about any of this and meet other volunteers please join the Quaker Roots volunteer briefing on Tuesday 29 August.

Key dates:

• Thursday 7 September is No Faith in War Day, where Quakers join other faiths in witnessing for peace during the arms fair set-up week. Quaker Roots will be holding meetings for worship over the course of the day. The main one is at 1pm.
• Monday 11 September (afternoon), Quaker Roots is leading a walking vigil around the offices of arms companies in London.
• Monday 11 September on the opening eve of the arms fair, Quakers in Britain and Pax Christi will hold a silent, candlelit vigil in solidarity with victims of the arms trade.
• Tuesday 12 September is the opening day. Quaker Roots will hold a meeting for worship.

There is more information on our 'Arms trade' page including contact and legal information.

If you'd like to order a 'Quakers for Peace' t-shirt, please visit the Quaker Bookshop.

More information will soon be available on activities for those unable to attend the DSEI action in person.
