Several hundred people travelled to Staffordshire from all over Britain, on Saturday 20 April, for the inauguration of the Quaker Service Memorial at the National Memorial Aboretum.

A number of members of the Friends Ambulance Unit (FAU) and Friends Relief Service (FRS) were in attendance, together with family members and friends, people involved in creating and building the Memorial, as well as Friends and attenders from Meetings across Britain and representatives of Britain Yearly Meeting.
