We are a large, vibrant Quaker Meeting based in a fully accessible city centre building. Every Sunday our building is well-used with adults and children coming to Quaker worship. We use different parts of the building for creative activities, children’s gatherings, as office space or meeting rooms and for shared meals and community events.
We meet together for worship based on silent waiting, in which we seek to come nearer to one another and to God. The Meeting for Worship begins as soon as anyone sits down in silence. The silence may be broken by anyone who feels compelled to speak, pray or read.
No two Quaker Meetings are the same, and a Meeting can embrace a wide range of experience.
Everyone is welcome: Christians, those from other faiths and from none. In Sheffield Central Meeting, the children join us a few minutes before the end of our Meeting for Worship.
Come along to one of our Meetings – you will be very welcome. We very much welcome new attenders, to join us in any of our faith and social justice activities.
We are happy to share our building with organisations that share our values. Currently the Sheffield City of Sanctuary and South Yorkshire Refugee Law and Justice use our building until the renovation of their premises is completed.
We are keen to let out rooms long-term to like-minded organisations or businesses. If that might that be you please see More information about the SCQM building and its services
