Welcome to Oxford Local Quaker Meeting, situated in the heart of the city. We are home to, and host of, a vibrantly diverse community.
We are open throughout the week for Quaker worship as well as a range of events. Our premises are available for hire by community groups.
We look forward to welcoming you to worship with us.
We have groups for Children and Young People. Oxford Quakers hosts a thriving community of students and Young Adults (18-35) who meet weekly for worship and fellowship.
Learn more about us, our involvement in social issues, the history of Quakers in Oxford, and how we give service within our community.
We publish a monthly newsletter, "43", featuring news and views from local Quakers.
Oxford Local Meeting is part of Oxford & Swindon Area Meeting.
