Britain Yearly Meeting has been holding a wide range of online preparation sessions ahead of Yearly Meeting proper (which begins on 26 July). Special interest groups and Quaker Recognised Bodies have also been running events. Staff from the Friend have been getting to as many as possible (see last week for 5-7 July). Those small few we’ve missed will be covered in other ways. This week’s coverage takes us up to the last of the preparation sessions.
