Christine Trevett reports on outreach at the National Eisteddfod

by Christine Trevett 12th August 2016

Cultural festivals are good places for Quaker outreach and engagement, though they involve a lot of work! The annual National Eisteddfod is one such opportunity, this being the primary Welsh language cultural event, which lasts a week. Quakers in Wales are always engaged with it, as also with the Royal Welsh Show, but this year Meeting of Friends in Wales ensured that Quakers provided a lecture at the Eisteddfod – the first of three planned until 2018.
