About

A weekend of witness and worship, for any Quakers interested in caring for the Earth and what that means for them and their faith. Organised as a residential follow-up to the 2025 Quaker Earthcare gathering. Doesn't cost the earth!

* Meet up with other Quakers to worship in community, wait on the guidance of the Spirit, and share what we have found about the ways we might respond to the challenges of climate change and the crisis of biodiversity.
* A variety of faith in action sessions around practical ideas asking the question "but what can I do?". Learn what other Quakers are doing to advance issues of sustainability and Earthcare within the Society of Friends and the wider world. Contribute your own session for others to follow!
* Comforting shared community meals with an all-vegan menu.
* Designed for affordability: overnight sleeping in the Meeting House (bring your own camp mat) is available at no extra charge. For those looking to book a hotel, we recommend the Go2 Lancaster Centre.

Cost: £80 standard / £40 concession / £120 supporter (including all sessions and all meals). Concessions are available for children, young adults (up to age 35), and anyone for whom £80 would be unaffordable (on a self-rated basis). Supporter tickets are voluntary and help us to cover our costs if we have large numbers of concessions. Any excess from this gathering will be donated to Lancaster Meeting to encourage the running of more affordable Quaker community events in this style!

Up to 80 spaces available. Organised by a group of Young Adult Friends, for Quakers of any age range.

Attendees under 16 should be accompanied by a parent or guardian. For more details please see our safeguarding policy.
