Updated 24 July 2018

Housing is not just about providing 'bricks and mortar', but also about challenging inequalities and prejudices. This is reflected in the range of projects supported by and through Quaker Housing Trust (QHT), a national charity set up by Quakers in 1967.

Updated 7 April 2020

It's one of the ironies of Brexit that the UK had to be on the brink of leaving the EU in order to start getting excited about European elections. Barring a sudden reversal of fortunes for the Prime Minister's Brexit agreement, British voters will head to the polls with the rest of Europe in May – if only to elect placeholder parliamentarians who will keep the seats warm in Brussels until Brexit eventually happens.

Updated 8 June 2020

Quaker Question Time: listening and learning together

Updated 24 September 2020

"Love the questions themselves, as if they were locked rooms or books written in a very foreign language.

Perhaps then, someday far in the future, you will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way into the answer." -- Rainer Maria Rilke

These include a stated desire to abolish capitalism and "a failure to condemn illegal activities done in support of their cause".
