Our views on

Marriage

We believe all are born equal and our love is equal too. It is the nature and quality of the relationship of a couple that is crucial, and we celebrate with equal joy the marriages of same-sex and opposite-sex couples. In Britain, marriages for all our Quaker couples can be held in Quaker meeting houses.
