Action
The work of Quakers in Britain emerges from our deep spiritual experience.
We work long term to tackle the root causes of violence and to build a more just and peaceful world. Quakers call this form of action 'witness' – living out our faith through action. As an organisation Quakers in Britain supports Quakers to take action and also works on their behalf to build sustained peace and social justice.
