A simple beautiful memorial to Friends work in War and Peace.
Description of Memorial:
A memorial to commemorate the work of the Friends Ambulance Unit and the Friends Relief Service is under construction at the National Memorial Arboretum, Alrewas, Staffordshire.
It will present the Religious Society of Friends and what Quakers stand for to millions of people in the UK and abroad, and provide a space for reflection and silent worship.
Its simple structure in stone brings to mind a meeting for worship. The circular seating will serve as a setting for contemplation and express our vision of reconciliation in times of conflict. Wording carved on the seats will illustrate Friends’ commitment and witness to peace.
