We had a wonderful 3 days last week skilling up people in Stockport to become Peer Mediator Trainers. Lots of collaborating, listening, reflecting and active participation! Get in touch to find out about future dates in Grimsby, London and Manchester
It's sad that two titans of peace education died in recent months, but Johan Galtung and Betty Reardon leave us with many tools and insights created with peacebuilders everywhere; we can all work to use make better use of their work, and build on it for ourselves.
Joined Sufi friends for Zikr at the mosque this evening. It was a special extended celebration, incorporating evening namaz, & the veneration of relics of the Prophet that were placed on view (some hairs from his beard, & a sandal he had worn). After, shared food & fellowship.
A day of conversation, networking and listening to explore climate change, carbon emissions and war
Two Friends gathered today at 12, to keep the silence, & wait. For myself, it was an exercise in snow-shovelling; intrusive thoughts crowding in, as fast as I shifted the earlier ones. Sometimes, this is the way; a struggle to create & maintain a space for possibility.
Great to be here at the #neu2023 with our Peace Education Network friends from @PaxChristiYouth and @ForcesWatch! Great conversations about responding to military in schools, exclusions and improving relationships.
📢Our analysis of #Budget2023 for UK military spending: 💷 £13.1bn in additional funding announced ⬆️ 15.7% rise this financial year 📈 Exceeds £200bn over the course of this parliament ⏰ Outstrips climate spending (DESNZ) by 8.7x demilitarize.org.uk/military-spend… @CNDuk @STWuk @CAATuk

Ten friends gathered for meeting for worship followed by our business meeting. Clare introduced us to our new safeguarding policy and detailed who to contact with any concerns.
We were six this morning. Tony ministered on a remembered hymn: "Come Down O Love Divine, Seek thou this soul of mine, And visit it with thine own ardour glowing". He felt it very descriptive of a gathered meeting. Each one uniquely inspired, yet animated by the same spirit.
Withdrawal from the ECHR is not a decision that should be taken on the whim of a prime minister in order to pacify the racist rabble in his party. There should be a referendum.
Good to catch up with @nfpb1 and thanks to @BoltonQuakers for such a warm welcome. #Quakers
#Quakers from Huddersfield join todays #EnoughIsEnough march and rally
Matthew Parris, on #bbcaq, just described Johnson as "leaving a trail of slime across Downing Street". A memorable phrase. The long tendency to deceit, cronyism and self interest has certainly been accelerated by his premiership. The result is a government now in terminal decay.
A tired woman's prayer: I long for spring air. For glimpses of hope in the conduct of our politics. For every soul who's under the hammer to sense love and feel openings are possible. It will come. In small ways when we weren't really looking. Let me not miss the moments. Amen.
