The trustees of Bamford Quaker Community met on Tuesday 13 June 2023 and recorded the following minute:
‘It is clear there are insufficient people willing to join the community and it cannot continue in its present form. We will therefore explore selling the current building and land, and use the funds raised to pursue our charitable objectives in other ways.’
Following a weekend of Discernment and Celebration in mid-August 2023 the Quaker Community is now closed to visitors and guests as the trustees and residents prepare for the sale of the property.
The Quaker Community charity is re-visioning for a different future and is looking for support with this and for new trustees. Please consider if you or someone you know would be willing to consider joining our Way Forward group and maybe becoming a trustee during this time of transition. Please send any suggestions and offers to mail@quakercommunity.org.uk
Please hold trustees and residents in the Light at this time.
