Hi Wendrie,

We have hosted a couple of planning weekends in the past and would be happy to do so again. Information on our facilities can be found here: https://bradfordonavonquakers.weebly.com/venue-for-hire.html (YFGM can obviously ignore the hire charges, as we don't charge for any Quaker events)

Best wishes,
Klaus Huber
Resident Warden, Bradford on Avon

Hello,

While I'm not in the YFGM (Young Friends General Meeting 18 - 35) age bracket any more they've asked me to help find them some venues. So, I am attempting to find meeting houses that would be willing to host/hire them over a weekend.

Young Friends General Meeting (YFGM) is the national community for young adults (18-35) within the Religious Society of Friends.

Our name refers to both our organisation and to the three general meetings (or gatherings)


They're looking for six bookings per year:
Three gathering weekends: (60/70 people) February, May, and October each year (May includes the bank holiday Monday). A minimum 5 rooms with level access to the majority (2 meeting rooms, noms, bags, break out) plus kitchen (which can cater for 60/70 people), accessible toilets.

Three planning weekends: (25 people), held six weeks (ish) before the gathering weekend. 3 rooms plus kitchen Slightly less accessibility requirements but full kitchen required.

You can read more about YFGM on their website: https://yfgm.quaker.org.uk/about/ If you're interested please let me know by commenting or emailing me at Wendrie@MindfulBusinessServices.com (generic email to come!)

Yours in peace,

Wendrie Heywood
