4th July 2026  -  Afternoon Tea and Open day

On 4th July we opened the Meeting House and Quiet Garden to friends and visitors and shared a lovely Afternoon Tea. We often hear visitors  say " I've walked past here so many times and never knew what was beyond the gate". About 25 people came for the first time and the weather was warm (cool!)  enough to  sit in the garden. 

Mid July 2026 - FIlming in the Meeting House

Our Meeting House was recently used as a film location for a TV series about the Cadbury Family. These photos show what the Meeting room usually looks like and how it was stripped back to basics for the filming.

31st July 2026 - Outing to Vale Head Farm

Stourbridge Quakers is a 'Meeting of Sanctuary'  and we support a small number of people seeking Asylum. On 31st July we had an outing to Vale Head Farm in Kinver. We had 9 sanctuary friends join us for an extensive tour of the farm. The children fed the animals, collected freshly laid eggs, and we all picked tomatoes for lunch afterwards. We were made very welcome by Tom and the team who are part of the  Ruskin Mill Land Trust

Heritage Open Days  12th & 13th September 2026
