Young adult groups by area

    Scotland

    Edinburgh

    We are a group of Friends from across Edinburgh. We aim to meet monthly for a social gathering, and in the past have been for a walk up Arthur's seat, played games, shared soup and attended the Central Edinburgh Quakers' winter Ceilidh together. We have an email list and Facebook page, but most of the organising gets done on our Whatsapp group. Members of the group regularly go to central Edinburgh Quaker Meeting and South Edinburgh Quaker Meeting for Sunday Meeting for Worship.

    Newcastle

    The Newcastle Young Friends Group is for anyone between 18 and 35(ish) who is interested in Quakerism. We meet on the first Wednesday of every month at the Newcastle Quaker Meeting House. The Evening Meeting for Worship starts at 6pm and afterwards we gather to share a meal, socialise and discuss spirituality and life. Occasionally, we organise fun outings around the beautiful North East. Anyone is welcome, you don't have to be a Quaker or religious to join.

    Leeds Young Friends Group meets around once a month for a social meet up, usually at one of our houses or a pub. We also go on trips and take part in other activities, previously we have taken part in pub quizzes, walks, meals out, an evening at the trampoline park and a day trip to Whitby. We are keen to hear further ideas and plan other trips for the coming months. We also share information, opportunities and details of general Quaker and non-Quaker events.
