Some of you may have seen the Silent Quaker Walking Vigil for Peace publicised in the recent Local Development Work newsletter. I’m writing to share some further details and invitations connected with the day.

The national Silent Quaker Walking Vigil for Peace will take place in London on Saturday 19 September 2026, the weekend closest to the United Nations International Day of Peace.

The vigil has grown out of conversations and planning amongst Friends from across Britain, supported by the national Faith in Action Team, and seeks to offer a visible, prayerful Quaker witness for peace in our current times.

The walk will begin and end with Meeting for Worship and will take place silently and at a gentle pace. A circular route is planned, beginning and ending in Victoria Embankment Gardens, with a pause midway for worship, likely outside St Martin-in-the-Fields. Final details are still being confirmed as permissions are arranged with Westminster Council and the police.

The vigil is intended to be family friendly, and children and young people are warmly welcome.

Friends intending to come are encouraged to sign up via: [email protected]

We gather.

We are a welcoming Quaker worshipping group that meets twice a month in Harwich. Take a seat and enjoy an hour of reflection, peace and connection. You will find silence, warmth, and a spirit of enquiry. Please message for details.
