​

Sunderland Quakers are moving.

 

Our Meeting House in Roker has been sold but we are not leaving Sunderland.

​

We have plans to reopen a Meeting House somewhere in the city centre building a community for the benefit of all.

We wish to live adventurously.

​

We were hoping to remain in Roker until we had a site and our new building was ready but circumstances, due to Covid restrictions, changed this and we felt that to sell the building now was the right thing to do.

​

We enjoyed being at Roker Park Road but it is now time to move on. Thank you to all our neighbours and everyone who has used the Meeting House over the last fifty years. We will still maintain a Quaker presence in Sunderland and currently meet via Zoom.

Our meetings together are simple - we join with others and settle into silence. Sometimes someone may feel inspired to speak briefly. We find this way of worship draws us together and may bring us closer to a power beyond ourselves. After the silence we chat and share our experiences. All ages are welcome in our meeting though children must have adult supervision if attending.

​

Every third Sunday of the month we have an early breakfast meeting which starts at 8:15am. You will be warmly welcomed to our new building when it is ready. If you’re seeking spiritual companionship or maybe just curious, Sunderland Quakers meet online for quiet reflection, seeking wisdom out of stillness.
