Dorchester Quaker Meeting House is managed by Dorchester Quakers on behalf of Dorset and South Wiltshire Area Meeting; our building is first and foremost a place of Worship but when not in use for Quaker Worship we are glad to make it available for room hire available to our local community. As a religious community we bear witness to peace, equality, integrity, simplicity and sustaining the environment and want our values to show through our actions. In our aim to serve the community, it is important that events and meetings which take place in our building should not be in conflict with our values and the public statements of Quakers in Britain. We reserve the right to refuse or cancel any booking we feel might be in conflict with our values but we particularly welcome those who uphold our values.
Rooms available to hire:
We are mindful of post-covid practice and the numbers for rooms written in pink here relate to those considerations which are under review.
