Quaker Rainbow brings together people of diverse sexual and/or gender identities within Quakers in Britain. It provides a voice and a meeting space for the LGBTQIA+ community. This includes lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, asexual and gender non-binary Quakers, and Quakers interested in sexuality, gender identity and equality. We welcome others seeking an inclusive spiritual community.
Our constitution states that membership is open to the following individuals:
- All members of The Religious Society of Friends (Quakers)
- Attenders at Local Quaker meetings
- The partners of Quaker Rainbow members
- Non-Quakers who are in sympathy with the Quaker testimonies to equality, truth, peace, simplicity and sustainability
A member can be removed at the discernment of the committee if there is evidence that the member does not accord with Quaker testimonies, or contradicts the aims of the group, or behaves in a manner perceived to be deliberately vexatious, provocative or aggressive towards other members and has not responded to eldership and oversight from Friends.
