Production
The magazine is printed on recycled paper by The Birches Printers, Willenhall, West Midlands. It is sold predominantly on a subscription only basis and there are subscribers across the UK, US and Europe. Individual copies are sold from the Quaker Bookshop, Friends House, London.
The magazine has five editors which are appointed by Young Friends General Meeting, having been discerned by that Meeting's Nominations Committee. They are appointed for a period of three years, during which time, each editor will work on approximately 15 editions.
Young Quaker is edited over a weekend by two editors out of five, who piece together the contributions and advertisements with their own thoughts and ideas to form the final magazine, which is usually between 24 and 32 pages. A 36 page issue has been produced, as have editions of less pages, though these are now less common.
