And why not think about being staff? Training weekend is in late June and you must be 18 or over. More male staff esp welcome!
if you know of a young person aged 11-16 in Scotland or the North of England who has a Quaker connection - get in touch for shindig 2017!
All YPs off site and en route home - thanks to all for an amazing week. See you next year!

Are your meetings for church affairs held in a spirit of worship and in dependence on the guidance of God? #ReadingQFP Chapter 7 + 15
