Funerals in a time of physical distancing

Updated 9 February 2022

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.

The UK must end indefinite immigration detention

Updated 11 June 2020

Despite the welcome release of many detainees in response to the Covid-19 crisis, the UK's immigration detention system remains unfit for purpose. The UK remains the only country in Europe where detainees can be held indefinitely. This violates basic principles of justice and human rights while avoiding proper transparency and judicial oversight. Anyone with 'irregular status' can be detained – new arrivals, people with no papers or 'wrong passports', and overstayers. Tens of thousands of people are being locked up every year – without any idea of when they might be released.

Updated 25 June 2020

When the Covid-19 pandemic began, no one in Kenya thought it would reach us. In March 2020, we were all proven wrong when the first positive case was reported.

Are you ready for 2021?

Updated 11 January 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.

The changing shape of Quaker meetings

Updated 8 April 2022

Our Tabular Statement is the annual report of all Quakers in Britain, the closest thing Quakers have to a census. Every year, area meetings send in a report which shares the overall numbers of members and attenders, and the changes that meetings have recorded in the previous twelve months.
