Young people at Area Meeting

It was great to see so many young people at Area Meeting in Frandley on 14th May. The group who went to Yealand camp this year had a great time and their report back included a video made by Mhairi Jackson with some highlights.

ECAM is supporting Young Friends Regional Meeting, which brings together 18-25 year olds from the North West. In March they met for a weekend at Liverpool meeting house; exploring the city, hosting a speaker and discussing their theme of "Quakers & Christianity". It was clear from the excellent report by Rin Molton and Lauren Kerins that they all enjoyed a fun and thoughtful weekend event. The next YF Regional Meeting will be in Lancaster in June.
