Quakers were among the thousands who took part in the Extinction Rebellion (XR) protest last week, which organisers described as the biggest civil disobedience on record.

Friends from Meetings that included Kingsbridge, Bristol, Huddersfield and Bath put their faith into action as they joined protests at four major London landmarks: Marble Arch, Oxford Circus, Waterloo Bridge and Parliament Square.
