New website pages
As part of our mission to make this website relevant and useful, two new pages have been added to the website.
There is now a page dedicated to press releases, enabling members of the press to find the releases easily and Friends to see what we are talking about.
We often put up announcements of forthcoming events on this website, but we rarely tell anyone how the event actually went. All of that is about to change with the launch of the Event Reviews page. You can see how the events went and read a report. If anyone would like to contribute a review of a Quaker event that they have attended, please contact your clerk or use one of the feedback forms on this site.
