Quakers are campaigning for equality through three specific areas of social justice in Britain: migrant and refugee rights, housing conditions, and a more compassionate criminal justice system.

Sanctuary Everywhere

More than 90 Quaker meetings are now working to welcome migrants and refugees in their local communities. In recognition of the current situation, and our history of helping refugees, our centrally managed Sanctuary Everywhere programme supports Quakers to take action, and advocates for an end to the UK immigration detention system.

Find out more about our work on creating a culture of welcome.

Housing

Quaker Housing Trust is Britain Yearly Meeting's own housing charity: a practical response to a spiritual concern. Through loans, grants and advice, the Quaker Housing Trust supports projects that meet the housing needs of people who are often overlooked.
