by Ian Kirk-Smith 3rd April 2015

‘Torture weakens the civil society that condones it’ was one of the phrases from an introduction to a report on the work of the Quaker Concern for the Abolition of Torture (Q-CAT) that resonated with representatives of Sufferings.

Juliet Morton and Jane Laxton reported on the work of Q-CAT, explained recent developments and future plans, and urged Friends to create a more broadly based concern across British Meetings.
