Why Peace & Justice?

We all want a world where we can feel safe, happy, and play our part. ‘Peace & Justice’ means making that world a reality: one step at a time.

At Peace Hub we believe that a just & peaceful world is possible if we work together. If that sounds like a world you’d like to be a part of, we’d love to connect with you! Pop in, or join in online

And if it all seems a bit daunting: don’t worry, we’re here to help! You can be part of the community however much (or little!) time and energy you’ve got available.

How Can I Take Action?

Actions that you can take part in range from signing petitions and writing to your MP, to supporting efforts to make peace and build justice and sending messages of solidarity. When many individuals take action together, it adds up to make a big difference.

We focus on a different theme every three months, so you’re always welcome to pop back and see what’s new! All the themes aim to:

Start a conversation about peace and justice,
Affirm the humanity of others,
Provide opportunities to take action.

Take Action

Community

There are lots of organisations in the West Midlands, the UK and globally, who are doing great work for peace & justice. At Peace Hub our aim is to seek out and highlight this work.

As well as promoting the work of other peaceful and just organisations, we’re keen to work in partnership with groups in the West Midlands who are working for a better world.

If you are interested in finding out how we could work together, please get in touch.

A Quaker Organisation

Peace Hub is a Quaker organisation – we are led to take action by our faith.

But we’re not exclusive! We’re happy to work with people of any faith (or no particular faith) who are in sympathy with our call to act for peace and justice.

Who are Quakers?

Quakers share a way of life rather than a set of beliefs. We seek to experience God directly, within ourselves and in our relationships with others and the world around us. These direct encounters with the Divine are where Quakers find meaning and purpose.

Why do Quakers act for Peace & Justice?

Our religious experience leads us to place a special value on truth, equality, simplicity and peace. These testimonies (as they are known) are lived rather than written. They lead Quakers to translate thier faith into action by working locally and globally for social justice, to support peacemakers and care for the environment.

Central England Quakers

Quakers are organised across Britain into ‘Area Meetings’: Peace Hub is run by Central England Area Meeting (formally known as the Central England Area Quaker Meeting Charities, reg. charity no. 224571)
