Updated 13 August 2020

A joy and privilege of my work is spending time in the lives of Quaker meetings. Over the last few months, I've seen Quakers respond creatively, faithfully and lovingly to the challenges presented by Covid-19. This has led to worship happening in ways most of us would scarcely have dreamt of a year ago.

Updated 8 October 2020

Recent Department for Education guidance tells headteachers in England to ensure external organisations, speakers and resources do not take "extremist" stances.

Updated 23 December 2021

Love and fundraising don't seem like natural bedfellows to most of us. But on the front of our latest contributions leaflet, we quote from Quaker faith & practice 22.42 “Love is the will to nurture life and growth in oneself and in another". Without the love that prompts individuals, meetings and funders to make gifts of money and time, national Quaker work simply could not function, particularly in what has been another challenging year.

Updated 17 February 2022

On 25 January Quakers in Britain issued a statement urging all sides to "engage in urgent de-escalation and commit to resolving the stand-off over Ukraine peacefully". Since then, we have witnessed the continuation of the military build-up.

Updated 31 August 2022

When I was a child, I was struck by how differently my parents saw the price of a large glass of chocolate milk. It always puzzled me. In the diner, sitting on the sticky red vinyl seat of a booth, I would scan the menu and feel anxious.
