Exhibition at Sidcot Arts Centre Tuesday 20 September 4.30pm to 7.30pm
They drafted the first document calling for the abolition of slavery.
They co-founded Greenpeace, Oxfam, CND, and Amnesty International.
Since 1650 they advanced the rights of women and their activism in support of same sex marriage was key to its legalisation.
A faith that believes there is that of God - or light - in everyone renders discrimination inconceivable and dispenses with hierarchy and dogma.
There are Muslim Quakers, Jewish Quakers and Atheist Quakers.
Quaker is a SIMPLE, CONTEMPORARY, RADICAL way, tirelessly urging our world towards a more progressive state.
