Come & see our display of women who lived their faith out loud.

In celebration of international women’s day we have a display in our foyer of Quakers. From Margaret Fell to Greenham Common, these women refused to be silent.

Who inspires you?

We were delighted to host this remarkable event. Thank you to The Rowntree Society for organizing and especially to all who attended and shared their personal experiences of Joseph Rowntree.

At all age worship today, the children of Friargate meeting gave out paper doves they had made and asked us to write a message of peace on them. They also gave us four famous quotes about peace to help us…

At Friargate the children have been making paper doves to symbolise peace, which are decorating our window.
We also have white poppies in the foyer for a donation. Pop in when you’re passing and see our display…

Good. They should never have been prosecuting her anyway. All she did was inform the jury of their rights, as @BritishQuakers have been pointing out. https://t.co/gquodCoPHa
