Housing and humanity
Tara Craig reports on a successful online Quaker initiative
A webinar (online seminar) organised by Britain Yearly Meeting on 17 April saw Jenny Brierley, clerk of Quaker Housing Trust, and Judith Moran, director of Quaker Social Action, discuss the growing housing crisis in Britain today. Jessica Metheringham, parliamentary engagement officer for Britain Yearly Meeting, chaired the webinar.
