Telling our stories: exploring the Quaker way
One of the distinctive marks of Quaker faith is that it is rooted in personal experience and not in creeds or set forms of words. There is no checklist of things that everyone must believe in or agree to but rather an encouragement for each person to listen to and live by their own experience. We sometimes call this our 'inward light'.

Providing housing, making homes: Quaker Housing Trust celebrates 50 years of service
Housing is not just about providing 'bricks and mortar', but also about challenging inequalities and prejudices. This is reflected in the range of projects supported by and through Quaker Housing Trust (QHT), a national charity set up by Quakers in 1967.

Should Quakers eat less animal produce?
At Yearly Meeting in 2011 British Quakers adopted the 'Canterbury Commitment' where we pledged collectively to live our faith in action by becoming a 'low-carbon, sustainable community'. This called on us to respond to climate change in new and innovative ways. Quakers across the country are making steps to live out their faith on this issue, including campaigning for real political commitment to addressing climate change.

Why I'm tired of just talking about Brexit
I am tired of talking about Brexit. I am tired of telling people what I think; explaining what options I think our government should be pursuing. I am tired of finding there's no common ground; of steeling myself for the inevitable debate. I am tired of talking to people I agree with, and finding they experience the same sense of powerlessness that I experience. I am tired of finding that even mentioning it polarises things. Maybe I need to stop talking about Brexit.

Poverty, austerity and choosing a different path
One piece of news which slipped by largely unnoticed among the political turmoil of the last few months was the release of a UN report on the state of poverty in the UK. In many ways this wasn't unusual. UN reports very rarely have the British press clamouring all over them. But, as the country seems to be inching closer to a no-deal Brexit that gambles "with the basic needs of our poorest citizens and communities", it's more vital than ever that we take heed of its findings.

Building understanding and tolerance in a divided society
We live in a divided society. We always have, to some extent, but it feels especially obvious right now. We will have to live with that, at least for the time being, but how can we do that positively? How can we build tolerance and understanding in such a situation?

Quaker Question Time: listening and learning together
"Love the questions themselves, as if they were locked rooms or books written in a very foreign language. Don't search for the answers, which could not be given to you now, because you would not be able to live them. And the point is to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps then, someday far in the future, you will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way into the answer." -- Rainer Maria Rilke

To protest is to participate
Quakers have been around for almost 400 years. From the very start we've spoken up and out against injustice. Protest is vital to us because it's one of the ways we put our faith into action. We speak out when God, the Spirit, our conscience – call it what you will – tells us we cannot stay silent.

Quaker community: taking our commitments forward
In the summer, as Quakers gathered together for a Yearly Meeting quite unlike any other, we felt moved and challenged by the Spirit to commit ourselves to "becoming an actively anti-racist faith community". Whilst acknowledging that we so often fall short and that we have far to go and much to learn, we also felt confident that we can "rejoice in recognising God's creation in one another. This is what love requires of us".

Remembering Srebrenica
Monday 11 July was the anniversary of the massacre in Srebrenica. Twenty-seven years ago, over 8,000 Bosniak (Bosnian Muslim) men and boys over 12 were murdered in the town in the worst single event of the Bosnian civil war of 1992-1995.
