Quaker Paul Parker has written about his first decade as recording clerk of Britain Yearly Meeting (BYM) in an article on the Quakers in Britain website. Recalling ten Quaker landmarks, starting with the 2011 Canterbury Commitment – when Yearly Meeting committed ‘to become a low-carbon, sustainable community’ – he mentions milestones such as the Sixth World Conference of Friends in 2012 in Kenya, and the opening of The Light in Friends House in 2015.
