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.

A youthful Yearly Meeting
Children and young people are a vital part of Yearly Meeting. They gather to look at its themes in age-appropriate ways, build community, explore Quaker faith and practice, experience worship and prayerful decision-making, and of course have lots of fun in a safe space.

Preparing for Yearly Meeting through worship sharing
Yearly Meeting will be held at the end of April 2023. That may seem like a long time from now (it's only January!) but time steadily creeps on.We're asked to come to Yearly Meeting with hearts and minds prepared, and different people have different ways of preparing. Personally, I value worship sharing with other Friends. This is where members of a group share their thoughts and feelings on a particular subject, specifically within the structures of a period of Quaker worship.

Three ways Quakers are changing attitudes to plastic
It's strange to think that the first purely synthetic plastic was only invented in 1907, by a chemist named Leo Baekeland. His versatile and hardwearing invention, Bakelite, quickly became popular. By the 1960s, product designers were championing mass-produced colourful plastics in their work. Plastic was democratic, futuristic, and cheap.
