The Meeting House is on the right-hand side of Foregate Street (A34) when approaching from Stafford town centre. It is about 100 metres past the Gaol Square roundabout and just before the pelican crossing.
Background information:
George Fox was a founder of the Religious Society of Friends, commonly known as the Quakers or Friends.
Quaker worship is (mostly) silent or 'unprogrammed'. In the quiet we wait for a connection. This might be a connection with those around us, with our deepest selves, or with God. We may begin to see the world and our relationships in new ways. During worship somebody may feel moved to speak. This is called 'spoken ministry'.
