How Quakers in Devon secured a home for people seeking refuge
People travelling to the UK today in search of sanctuary are making journeys that take them across land and sea, and are too often greeted with hostility and violence. This continues to be the sad reality for many people seeking sanctuary from war, climate breakdown, exploitation and poverty – all too often a legacy of colonialism in their countries of origin. Quakers involved in countering the UK government's own 'hostile environment' policies know that it is essential to provide refugees with safe homes where they can live and recover.

The nuclear ban treaty: why international law matters
The Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons will enter into force in international law on 22 January 2021. The government of the United Kingdom, a nation state with an active nuclear weapons capacity, has stated many times that it will not become a signatory.

Contacting your MP: why, when and how
Engaging with politicians is an important part of the witness, or faith-influenced activism, of many Quakers. Writing to an MP can help raise the profile of an issue and give the MP a mandate to take action on it. It's a vital way of bringing about change.

Worship in lockdown: finding new forms of community
For a year and a half I had been working for Quakers in Britain, in a project seeking out and sharing ways Quakers can have simpler meetings. I'd found myself asking, "Wouldn't video conferencing save travel time, reduce carbon and include more people?" and, "Can't the spirit move when we are gathered while not physically together?"

Friends reunited: how online Quaker meetings are bridging boundaries
Like many Quaker meetings, my own – Forest Hill Meeting in London – has moved into the virtual sphere. One of the unexpected delights of this is seeing the faces of old friends, many of whom who moved away years ago, appearing on our screens. Seamlessly, they become part of the life of the meeting again.

Funerals in a time of physical distancing
Quaker funerals often have a different feel to other Christian celebrations marking the end of a person's life. They take the same simple, still form as a Quaker meeting for worship and are open to anyone who wants to gather to remember someone who has died.
