Margaret Fell (1614-1702) was a key figure in the development of the early Quaker movement, handling money, letters, and practical support for people who felt led to preach the Quaker message.

November 2018The climate emergency is not just a crisis of emissions, but a crisis of justice, both globally and locally. Climate chaos is deepening, and so are the chasms of economic inequality and social division. We desperately need a transition away from fossil fuels that is fast, fair and properly funded.
