Roots and branches: sharing and supporting our Quaker work
I still remember how inspired I was when I read a particular letter from a donor to Britain Yearly Meeting.

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

At the interface of interfaith
For people of faith, their faith is usually experienced as a precious lens on life and the vehicle through which they know the Eternal. Faith is that open doorway to the Divine through which we witness the ultimate truth of Being.

How Quakers are championing democracy
Quakers are known for their witness: living out their faith through action. Sometimes this action takes the form of campaigning and protesting. Our freedom to do these things is being threatened, but Quakers in Britain and other concerned groups are working together to do something about it.

Let’s talk about money: supporting Quaker work in difficult times
As we approach the end of what has been a very difficult year, the fundraising team thought it would be good to reflect on what we've learned in the last 12 months.

Are you ready for 2021?
Are you ready for 2021, or are you still reeling from 2020? The pandemic, like a powerful lens, has shown up more clearly many of the challenges we already knew we faced – both inside our Quaker community and in the world around us. In this blog I want to take a look at some of those challenges, and consider the questions we need to ask ourselves in order to meet them.

Justice around the world: building back better for all
“To be hopeful in bad times is not just foolishly romantic. It is based on the fact that human history is a history not only of cruelty, but also of compassion, sacrifice, courage, kindness." ― Howard Zinn, A Power Governments Cannot Suppress, 2007

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.

Reflecting on our action for the planet
Quakers do not have a creed, a statement that sums up our core beliefs, but for centuries we have used a short list of Advices and queries to guide us to question ourselves and discern how we are each led to act. Tellingly, they are offered 'for the comfort and discomfort of Friends' while we seek our own ways forward, listening for the inner Light.

Protecting the most vulnerable among us
A few years ago my partner and I cared for foster children. Our Quaker meeting has a great children's group and Sundays often saw us there – joining the 'adult' meeting as we all gathered; playing games in the children's group; and getting to know new friends. I think they learned about Quaker faith and values, but mostly they had fun. And that lovely experience opened my eyes to the importance of safeguarding in Quaker communities.
