A visit to the Knife Angel in Bolton

Our young quaker group visited the Knife Angel when it came to Bolton in December - an unfortunately soggy Sunday!

The sculpture is made from over 100,000 blades that have been taken from the streets of Britain through knife amnesties or surrenders. The Knife Angel is on a national anti-violence tour and has been touring since 2018.

This was a very thought-provoking piece of art.

Teenage General Meeting (North West)

For ages 13 to 18 from the North West of England and North Wales

Teenage General Meeting (TGM) run weekends away in meeting houses around the North West and North Wales. We often have a theme to the weekends, but mainly it's a space for teenagers to get together, make friendships, laugh, play games and be around like minded people! 

The weekends generally run from Friday until Sunday lunchtime, with teenagers sleeping on mats on the floor of the meeting house. 

For more information on TGM please use our "Contact Us" page.
