About Durham Quaker Meeting
Durham Quaker Meeting is the local meeting of the Religious Society of Friends, gathering at Alington House on North Bailey in the heart of the peninsula. Its meeting for worship is held largely in silence, which makes it a welcoming space for anyone who wants to sit quietly with others.
Meeting for worship runs every Sunday from 11am to noon, followed by tea, and visitors are asked to arrive between 10.45 and 11am. Children are welcome. The meeting room is not currently wheelchair accessible while the meeting awaits the installation of a lift.
