What’s wrong with Prevent?

Updated 21 January 2020

Prevent is the UK government's programme to stop people becoming terrorists or supporting terrorism. It has hit the headlines many times since its 2003 inception, and did so again in January when The Guardian revealed that police in South East England had listed Extinction Rebellion (XR) among 'extremist' ideologies, placing it alongside the far-right National Action and Islamic State affiliate Al-Muhajiroun.

Reflecting on our action for the planet

Updated 3 February 2021

Quakers do not have a creed, a statement that sums up our core beliefs, but for centuries we have used a short list of Advices and queries to guide us to question ourselves and discern how we are each led to act. Tellingly, they are offered 'for the comfort and discomfort of Friends' while we seek our own ways forward, listening for the inner Light.

What's wrong with the Armed Forces Bill?

Updated 22 April 2021

The UK, out-of-step with the rest of NATO, the UN Security Council and Europe, recruits people at 16. The Armed Forces Bill is our best opportunity to raise the UK's minimum recruitment age to 18 in law, a longstanding Quaker concern.

Crunch time for Policing Bill

Updated 6 December 2021

The Policing Bill is a massive piece of legislation that includes many measures that go against Quaker values. These include longer sentences, expanding stop-and-search powers, restricting protest, and criminalising trespass. A lot of these will disproportionately affect people from marginalised communities.

Nurturing the spiritual life of our communities

Updated 22 December 2022

I am somebody who reflects on what is nourishing me spiritually quite regularly. Whether it be wild swimming, singing in harmony or a windy walk on the moors, I find a range of activities help fill up my spiritual cup. Quaker worship is an important part of my spiritual life and it is where I am part of an intergenerational community. I feel lucky that a large part of my role as a Local Development Worker is supporting Friends to ask the question 'what are we finding spiritually nourishing' – not as individuals but as a whole Quaker community.

Building a lasting peace: 25 years of the Good Friday Agreement

Updated 15 May 2025

Most people over the age of about 35 with a connection to Northern Ireland will remember the Good Friday Agreement being signed. I do. I grew up just outside Belfast and at Easter 1998 when the Agreement was formalised I was 12 years old, on a canal boat somewhere in England. I wasn't blessed with keen political insight, but even I dimly grasped that what I was hearing on the radio was important.
