Our Quaker year: 5 meeting insights for 2018
Along with the Recording Clerk, Paul Parker, I love visiting local Quaker meetings. Britain Yearly Meeting employs staff to help meetings grow and to work for the changes Quakers want to see in the world. Together, we can do much more.
Five insights from Quaker Meetings
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.

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.

Why being an LGBTQ+ ally matters
I was a teenager when I first read Harvey Gillman's book, A Minority of One. At the time of writing it, Harvey was Outreach Secretary for Quaker Home Service (as it was then) and at the time of reading, I was a spiritually grumpy trainee journalist, confused by churches of all denominations who preached of God's love – but only for those who were heterosexual. For the rest of us who weren't, we were either vilified or ignored.
