Additional information

Quakers are a spiritual faith group who have been active in the community since the 1600s. We try to uphold principles (testimonies) of simplicity, truth, equality and peace. Many Quakers have been activists in support of these ideals in the past and continue to be so in the present day. We have more recently become activists in combating climate change and fostering the green ecological agenda.
