The Religious Society of Friends (Quakers) in Liverpool
Quaker faith is a search for truth, not a destination
Quakers are united by a way of life, not a list of beliefs. We try to help each other work out how we should live. All people are welcome and accepted at a Quaker meeting.
Quakers, or more formally, The Religious Society of Friends, have existed in Britain for 370 years and we trace our history in Liverpool back to the 1650s. There are around 500 Quaker groups - also called Meetings - in Britain.
