Marsden Quaker Meeting

We are a small group of older Friends. We seldom number more than 5 or 6 at Meeting. Few in number, we uphold the Quaker tradition of a gathered silence, waiting upon the spirit. We welcome others seeking spiritual nourishment, and those curious about the Quaker experience. We cherish Advices and Queries as a source of distilled wisdom, and as a guide for life.

Marsden Friends sold their Meeting House in October, 2025, after being there continually since 1763. We now hold our Meeting for Worship in the Pankhurst Room, at Unity Hall, Vernon Street, Nelson, BB9 9DE. 

Sunday Meeting: 10.45am

Wednesday Meeting: CUURENTLY SUSPENDED

Although small in number Marsden Friends are keen to share their worship and hospitality with those who wish to experience the Quaker way of worship and living.
