'Quaker

s' is the shorthand term for the Religious Society of Friends which was founded as a radical Christian movement in 17th century England. Today, Quakers come from all walks of life and continue to uphold a progressive religious approach. Quakers hold Meetings for Worship which means that we come together in silence and try to open ourselves to the deeper levels of our experience. Quakers have no paid clergy to lead or interpret our spiritual life and it is open to anyone who feels moved by the spirit to make a spoken contribution. Quakers recognise the equal worth and unique nature of every person. This means working to change the systems that cause injustice and hinder true community. It also means working with people who are suffering from injustice, as well as with people such as prisoners and asylum seekers. Follow us on Twitter at

We are pleased to have hosted the Yorkshire dialect society at the meeting house. Christina says ‘We did explain how close the Yorkshire dialect is to Quaker speech - because of the 'thee' and the 'thou' - the plain, biblically based speech - and none of this addressing folks like they are our superiors! ‘
