by Caroline Humphries 1st November 2013

Nicola Sleap has been appointed as researcher to a new PhD research project into twentieth century Quaker business history. The project is the first PhD to be funded by the Quakers and Business Group (Q&B).  The research will examine the period from the first national conference of Quaker employers in 1918 up to the Kraft takeover of Cadbury in 2010 and its aftermath. It will also explore the present day realities of running a Quaker business.
