Paddington, welcome and transformation
As a child I never quite felt that I fitted in or quite understood what was going on. We moved house when I was in the middle of primary school and I never quite got over the feeling of being dislocated and a bit at a loss. To be fair, I still often feel very much the same as an adult. I think it was because of this that I always felt drawn to stories about those people and creatures who might live among us but are somehow different; the Borrowers, the Wombles and, most of all, Paddington.

A Quaker take on Easter
In its earliest days, Quakerism was rooted deeply in the Christian story. The language, imagery and ideals that shaped the early Quaker community were deeply influenced by the Bible, both the old and new testaments.

Quaker funerals: community and contribution
I'm an elder of my local Quaker meeting at the moment, and have had the privilege of being responsible for the holding of two funeral meetings for worship in the last year. One was for someone who died in her late 90s; the other for an active woman whose life felt cut short by illness. Both were powerful, raw, moving occasions.

Making meetings simpler
Peace, truth, equality and simplicity – the words trip off Quaker tongues very readily. But if we are so committed to simplicity, why can it seem so complicated to run our 'simple' Quaker meetings?

5 ways to make Quaker meeting houses work for the future
I'm always a bit anxious when we spend time worrying about Quaker property. Early Quaker George Fox was disparaging about 'steeple houses'. In his radical vision, going to a physical church was not necessary to experience God. Really it's the community that makes up the church, not the premises it meets in.

Peace is possible
The promise made to the millions of people slaughtered by the hideous mistakes of World War I was 'never again'. World War I revealed that humanity is horribly capable of creating hell on earth.

Diversity: where are we now?
In 2017, Britain Yearly Meeting heard the call to “examine its diversity." From this decision came my one-year role, Diversity and Inclusion Project Coordinator, which began in June 2018.

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.

6 ways to make Quaker meeting houses more sustainable
There are many ways to take action against the climate crisis. More than 100 Quakers recently took part in a mass lobby of Parliament at Westminster, urging MPs to take action. Others have been involved in school strikes, anti-fracking action and activism with the growing Extinction Rebellion movement.It's also important to remember that the sustainability we might call for in other areas of our lives applies to our Quaker meetings and meeting houses as well. In my role I've come across many ways meetings are trying to make their properties more sustainable – and seen a lot of opportunities yet to be taken, too. Here are six ways to make a difference.
