Welcome
There are five Quaker meetings in the York area.
Three of these are in York itself, the largest based in Friargate. Around York, members of the Religious Society of Friends (commonly known as Quakers) worship and work together as York Area Meeting.
Our Quaker Meeting Houses are not only home to thriving Quaker meetings, but also a community resource – meeting places for many community groups and organisations.
Quaker Week is an annual opportunity to celebrate Quaker work, faith and community.
This year, York Quakers are hosting open virtual events with local groups who share areas of Quaker concerns: the environment, anti-racism and refugee support.
Friends have completed a survey of sustainability initiatives, opportunities and activities within the Area Meeting.
Themed chapters now tell of local activism and awareness amongst Quakers.
