by Ian Kirk-Smith 17th January 2014

Bulak Dale from Stretford is the winner of the Dorothy Trippier Peace Essay 2013 competition.  The competition was organised by Southport Friends in memory of local Quaker and artist Dorothy Trippier. A first prize of £100 and two prizes of £50 were offered to young people studying at Key Stage 4 or 5 for the best ‘essay on the subject of Peace’.

Dorothy Trippier and her husband Milton were conscientious objectors during the second world war. They were drawn to Quakers and became much loved members of Southport Meeting.

The Quaker Peace & Social Witness Peace Education Committee were involved in coordinating the judging of the essays.

The winning essay will be published in a forthcoming edition of the Friend.
