Quaker interfaith is moving in new directions. Quaker Concern for Animals is to co-sponsor an inter-religious fund and fellowship to support humane medical research, it was announced at the recent QCA AGM. The fellowship will be launched at the Third Interfaith Celebration of Animals to take place at the Golders Green Unitarian Church on 10 September, when representatives of the Buddhist, Sikh, Hindu, Jain, Muslim and Jewish faiths will be invited to join. More on the fellowship in a forthcoming issue of The Friend, and we will be looking at how the alternative research movement is progressing.
