<br />
The very popular Andrew Murphy talk (followed by supper) was the first event, and drew around 60 attendants on a lovely summers evening. Andrew (professor of Politics at Rutgers University) talked about Penn’s vast legacy and the paradoxes in his life. The talk was followed by a light supper of jacket potatoes and various toppings. People were able to enjoy further discussion over supper. <br />
<br />
On invitation, the children and teachers from the 2 local schools visited the exhibition early in July; it was a first visit to Jordans Meeting House for most of them. The children enjoyed learning about Penn and Quakerism and went on to prepare a Children’s Trail and Penn Posters. <br />

The next event was ‘Afternoon Tea with the Penns’ which did not have a large turnout. However several people attempted one or more of Guli Penn’s baking recipes. Deciphering and improvising were part of the fun and most of the baking was palatable, with the Portingall cake proving the most popular. It was a fun afternoon, enjoyed by bakers, tasters and exhibition visitors alike. <br />
<br />
Nigel Pascoe’s one man re-enactment of the Penn-Mead trial was the next event. The brilliant writing, combined with the retired QC’s powerful voice and masterful delivery, brought to life this important landmark case in legal history. It was attended by 60 people and thoroughly enjoyed by all. <br />

<br />
<br />
The swan song of the events was ‘Notes on Penn – William Penn in Words and Music’ – arranged by Catriona Troth and Jane Faulkner. About 90 people attended the concert which offered glorious baroque music by the 3 musicians (Jane Faulkner – Violin, Esther Cavett - Keyboard and Victoria Barrett - Oboe). The music was interspersed by readings from Penn’s writings, sensitively and beautifully delivered by the narrators, Catriona Troth and Martin Pounce. The concert, followed by tea and cakes, was a delight and a perfect ending to the event series. <br />
<br />
A total number of 428 visitors visited Jordans, 192 specifically for the exhibition, and the others for one or more events as well as the exhibition. During the same period last year, we welcomed 80 visitors in total, so this was a huge increase for us and showed that the effort we had put in on preparation and publicity had made a substantial difference. The events also raised about £1000 for the 3 chosen charities.<br />

<br />
In parallel to this, a travelling exhibition was created by Rose Tolley and Takako Barker of Chorleywood Meeting, and put on display at St Mary’s Church, Rickmansworth and at the Mill End Community Centre.</div>

We are very pleased with these results and extend a thank you to all who made Penn300 a success.</div>

Saturday 23rd June saw our second ever Chilterns Area Family Day on Amersham’s beautiful Friends’ Meadow. Once again, we were blessed with the most wonderful weather – sunny and inviting without being too hot. <br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
In between, we were serenaded by live music on guitar, ukulele and mouth organ. <br />
<br />
<br />
Up in the long grass at the top of the meadow, an Unnature Trail challenged all comers to find twenty items that didn’t belong in the environment (the highest score was 17!) <br />

<br />
There was a wonderful plant stall, a display of the talents of Chilterns Area Friends in the library – including paintings, jam, home-made cards and beautiful textiles. <br />

<br />
An abundance of delicious cakes were on offer, and tea and squash proved particularly welcome after the dancing! <br />
<br />
It wasn’t a large gathering, but those who came told us how much enjoyed the peaceful, inclusive atmosphere, and very much hope we will do it again.<br />
<br />
All in all, we are pleased to say that £ 235.06 was raised via donations for Wycombe Refugee Partnership. <br />

<br /></div>
<div>
Jordans Quaker Burial Ground is adjacent to the historic Jordans Meeting House, where William Penn and his family are buried. The burial ground was designed in the early 20th century by the Quaker architect Hubert Lidbetter (who also designed Friends' House and other meeting houses), its graves are arranged in a circle, which is meant to represent a Quaker meeting. It is a beautiful, serene place for Quakers to be buried or have their ashes scattered. And it is free to all members (Attenders pay just a small fee) of London West, North West London, and Chilterns Area Meetings.</div>

In the pastoral setting of Jordans Quaker Meeting House, we will connect with the natural world and bring our reflections to peaceful labyrinth walks indoors and outdoors. A labyrinth is not a maze: with just one path, it offers quiet, meditative space that can lead to fresh insights.This joint Jordans/Veriditas event is for all who would like to deepen their knowledge and understanding of labyrinths. It also serves as a Qualifying Workshop for those interested in training as a labyrinth facilitator with Veriditas. <br />
<br />
Veriditas is an international, non-profit organisation committed to exploration of the labyrinth as a spiritual path, especially through training labyrinth facilitators. More at: <a href="http://www.veriditas.com/">www.veriditas.com</a><br />
<br />
Jan Sellers, a Quaker and writer, leads retreats and labyrinth events for Woodbrooke, the Retreat Association, Veriditas and other organisations. Visit <a href="http://www.jansellers.com/">www.jansellers.com</a><br />
