About Representative Council

Quaker Life Central Committee has a Representative Council which is made up of representatives from every area meeting. The Council provides a two-way channel of communication with Friends in their meetings, the main purposes being educational, inspirational and consultative.

The council meets for two weekend gatherings a year where a combination of workshops and group sessions provides us with the space to engage with issues relating to Quaker Life work.
