Work on the Quaker Service Memorial in the National Memorial Arboretum in Staffordshire is on schedule for the inauguration on 20 April.  The Memorial commemorates the work of the Friends Ambulance Unit and Friends Relief Service between 1939 and 1948 and began as a concern during the first Quaker Week. The original construction schedule had been affected by delays due to flooding and the supply of the appropriate stone for the monument.
