17th June 2016
Almost sixty Friends will meet in Swanwick, Derbyshire, between 17 and 19 June for the Annual Conference of Treasurers (ACT).
The theme of the conference is ‘Money and Ministry’. The keynote presentation is by Chichester Friend Barbara Hayes, a tutor at the Woodbrooke Quaker Studies Centre in Birmingham and a former chair of the Ecumenical Council for Corporate Responsibility (ECCR). Barbara will speak on ‘The spiritual context of stewardship’.
Case studies presented by other speakers will look at ‘making an impact with a small outlay’, ‘reimagining the use of our resources’ and ‘using a legacy’. Friends also will take part in workshops on subjects ranging from succession planning to managing building projects.
