Why protest shouldn’t be prevented
A key part of Quaker faith is putting that faith into action, trying to change the world using nonviolent methods. For a religion that believes all people have value as children of God, using violence to force change is off the agenda.

Now is the time to act on the Policing Bill
The next few weeks are crucial in persuading MPs to challenge the Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Bill. Quakers in Britain will be lobbying on this at a national level, but we need your help to persuade your local MP to speak out against the bill.

Everyday solidarity: love in action
Solidarity has been on my mind.The word solidarity has a rich history that dates back to Roman times and laws. For me it conjures thoughts, feelings, and actions that are rooted in mutuality, cooperation, and a sense of love or care for one another.

Witnessing against the arms trade at DSEI
"Our Quaker community is a gathering together of peacemakers. We gather, we sit together in silent worship, and we disperse again, knowing that the work of peace cannot be accomplished in our meeting houses, it can only begin there. We are convinced that the making of peace demands us to return to our world in love, to stand firm in public, to confront the “powers and principalities", and to assert that in this time of permanent war, no government which involves itself in the arms trade, no government relying on and colluding with a militarised system, can govern well or for the benefit of all. We are resolute and will not submit before a governing hand that subsidises, facilitates and profits from the sale of weapons to ruthless dictators in our name." – Part of Quaker Roots Epistle, a grassroots network of Quakers.

Being a trustee: an experience of Quaker service
A new Clerk of Trustees will begin service in January 2023. As the current clerk I can thoroughly recommend the role, it's quite a bit of work but I can honestly say that I am enjoying it. I find it truly satisfying to know that I am doing my part to help secure the future of Quakers in Britain.

COP26 is over: where next for climate justice?
The Quakers in Britain team went to COP26 with hope but in the almost certain knowledge that it wouldn't deliver everything we wanted. We were part of a large movement of people and communities around the world calling for loss and damage finance – support for those hurt first and worst by the climate crisis. People and planet have been failed, again. But it is not the end.

Heeding the voice of conscience: a call to continued action
On 15 May we marked Conscientious Objectors' Day. At one of the ceremonies around Britain, I joined people gathered in Tavistock Square, London to hear music, poetry and testimony in the leafy gardens where the conscientious objection memorial stone rests. We laid flowers for all those who refused to kill. You can watch a recording on the Peace Pledge Union website.

Reflections from Labour and Conservative party conferences
On Sunday 25 September I packed up my laptop, dusted off my smart trousers, and headed up to Liverpool for Labour party conference. The following Sunday, I travelled to Birmingham to rub shoulders with the Conservatives. The aim of attending the conferences was to gather intelligence on what the two main parties were planning, to build relationships, and to promote Quakers and their priorities.

Truth and integrity in a time of climate crisis
It was reported in January that the 'carbon offsets' approved by the world's biggest certification provider are largely worthless. The investigation into rainforest carbon offset credits approved by Verra found that more than 90% of the credits offered did not represent real carbon reductions.

Why should we protest against DSEI?
In 2019, when I was 15, I attended a protest against the Defence and Security Equipment International arms fair (DSEI) alongside hundreds of peace activists, many of whom were Quakers. We gathered outside the ExCel centre in London to block the entrance, share art, sing, and hold meetings for worship in remembrance of the countless victims of war.
