Quakers at uni: how I found my faith

Updated 12 March 2024

As a fiercely independent 19-year-old, I decided that I would catch the train to York for my first week at university.

Are Sundays more sacred?

Updated 25 July 2019

“Now there were many old people who went into the chapel and looked out at the windows, thinking it a strange thing to see a man preach on a hill, and not in their church, as they called it; whereupon I was moved to open to the people that the steeple-house, and the ground whereon it stood were no more holy than that mountain…" (George Fox, Firbank Fell, 1694)

Updated 26 November 2021

When talking to students about COP26, I'll have to tell them honestly that, while I don't fully understand the deal, it feels like a disappointment for supporters of climate justice.
