5 Take-aways from George Fox 400
In 2024, Quakers around the world marked the 400th anniversary of the birth of George Fox, the best known of early Quakers. Celebrating the life of one man was a challenge to the Quaker testimony to equality, so focus was on the significant contribution he and others made to the beginnings of the Quaker movement. It was a chance to look back at how the religion started and celebrate the continued work of Quakers around the world for peace, truth and justice.

Nontheist Friends Network
The aim of the Nontheist Friends Network is to provide a forum and supportive framework for Friends who see religion as a human creation. They explore theological and spiritual diversity and their practical implications in respectful acceptance of different views, experiences and journeys. They share a radical questioning approach to contemporary religion. Events include an annual weekend residential conference at Woodbrooke and other regional and local events. They have contacts with Quakers in the United States, Australia and Europe, as well as non-Quaker networks.
