Atomic bombing survivors (hibakusha) Masashi Ieshima and Kuniko Kimura visited Friends House on 12 October, as part of a tour of Europe.

Paul Parker, recording clerk of Britain Yearly Meeting, welcomed the visitors to Friends House. He said: ‘It is important to us as Quakers that the events of 1945 are never forgotten and can never be repeated.’
