Connection, belonging and meaning in lockdown

Updated 2 February 2022

Reflecting on this past twelve months, none of us can claim that people of faith or faith communities have done more or differently than anyone else. All of us, of every faith and none, have longed for connection. We've joined with others and served our neighbours and our communities. We've lost loved ones. We've grieved for our own lost hopes. We've fretted and wept through the long night, and struggled to find the will to get up in the morning and begin the new day. We've held in our grief like a caught breath, waiting to weep. The spaces between us feel filled with ghosts and memories and things lost.

Inspiring the journey to COP26

Updated 8 April 2021

The UN climate talks, COP26, will take place in Glasgow in November this year. The focus is on 'Uniting the World to Tackle Climate Change'. It is of global significance.Of course, I have always been aware that climate change is something I should take seriously but, to be truthful, I had done very little. However, in January 2020 I experienced the catastrophic outcome of a severe summer drought in Australia. Suddenly climate change became personal.

Navigating uncertain waters: Covid-19 and inequality

Updated 9 April 2020

Policies that show generosity towards asylum seekers make some European politicians very nervous, which is why some of what we have seen in Europe in the last few days is so remarkable. The deportation of asylum seekers is being suspended (Germany), immigration detainees are being released (Italy), homeless people are being housed (France), and some are being given temporary asylum (Portugal).

Updated 20 April 2020

There I was, on 29 February 2020, with around 20 Quaker prison chaplains and other Friends who work in the field of criminal justice, at the Quakers in Criminal Justice conference. We were watching 'Lock Down', a new play by Journeymen Theatre, about Ron, serving a life sentence, and Kathy, a newly appointed Quaker prison chaplain.

Worship in lockdown: finding new forms of community

Updated 14 May 2020

For a year and a half I had been working for Quakers in Britain, in a project seeking out and sharing ways Quakers can have simpler meetings. I'd found myself asking, "Wouldn't video conferencing save travel time, reduce carbon and include more people?" and, "Can't the spirit move when we are gathered while not physically together?"

Friends reunited: how online Quaker meetings are bridging boundaries

Updated 8 June 2020

Like many Quaker meetings, my own – Forest Hill Meeting in London – has moved into the virtual sphere. One of the unexpected delights of this is seeing the faces of old friends, many of whom who moved away years ago, appearing on our screens. Seamlessly, they become part of the life of the meeting again.

Funerals in a time of physical distancing

Updated 9 February 2022

Quaker funerals often have a different feel to other Christian celebrations marking the end of a person's life. They take the same simple, still form as a Quaker meeting for worship and are open to anyone who wants to gather to remember someone who has died.

Updated 29 November 2023

First written about over two decades ago and enshrined in the Bali principles of climate justice (PDF) in 2002, the term climate justice is increasingly used when we talk about climate change and the environment. But what does it mean?
