‘Dealing with controversial bookings’ is to be one of the main topics at the annual gathering of Quaker centre delegates, held next week at Edinburgh Meeting house. According to Sue Proudlove, from Edinburgh Meeting, the Quaker Centres Gathering on 15 and 17 January will also focus on ‘planning for an uncertain future in the current political climate’ and ‘working with our local communities’. She said: ‘We are pleased that Paul Parker, Britain Yearly Meeting’s [BYM’s] recording clerk, will be with us as a keynote speaker, and Jocelyn Bell Burnell will be helping us “scan the horizon” for the future.’
