Our Values
Friends House is operated by a wholly-owned trading subsidiary of the UK charity Quakers in Britain.
Our staff are of all faiths and none, with Quaker values embedded in all that we do.
Peace
Quakers are best known for their deep commitment to peace.
But they don’t simply oppose war – they tackle the root causes of violence and challenge the systems that lead to war.
Equality & Justice
Quakers believe everyone is equal.
This leads us to challenge injustice and work with people who suffer injustice.
They oppose all forms of discrimination and champion diversity.
Truth & Integrity
Quakers strive to speak the truth with love.
Treating others as we would want to be treated means being both honest and respectful in words and actions.
Simplicity & Sustainability
Quakers try to live simply and focus on the things that really matter: the people around us and the natural world.
They call for a sustainable way of life that puts people and planet first.
