Quaker action at St Paul’s

Turning the Tide staff facilitate a workshop for protesters outside St Paul's

Protesters camped near St Paul’s Cathedral were given an experience of Quaker activism last week, when Friends provided a workshop to help them think through their aims.  Turning the Tide, a scheme run by Quaker Peace & Social Witness (QPSW), sent two staff to facilitate a session held outdoors between the protesters’ tents. Around thirty people turned up to consider the ‘big picture’ behind the protest.
