Britain Yearly Meeting 2025

Friday 23rd to Monday 26th May at Friends House, London and online

Online YM preparation sessions and special interest meetings will be held Sunday 27th April to Saturday May 3rd.

Our focus will be on our peace testimony. We will explore how we as Quakers address violence and conflict in our local communities and across Britain, and identify ways we could do more. How do we address violence and conflict around us? How do we nurture the radical peacemakers among us?
