Grant given to Bath Meeting House

Bath Meeting House awarded £10,000 grant

Bath Meeting House has been awarded a £10,000 grant in the latest round of funding from the National Churches Trust.  The grant is part of a £645,000 package that will benefit forty-five churches, chapels and Meeting houses in the United Kingdom and will help the Meeting house replace a cramped tea-bar, library and toilet with a spacious kitchen and fully accessible toilet.

Bath Meeting House is a historic building in the centre of the city. Local Friends want to fulfil its potential as a meeting place ‘for groups working for social justice, rehabilitation and sustainability – principles reflecting our Quaker values – and as a venue for public events, music and the arts’ and launched an appeal for funds to do this.

The Meeting is well on its way to reaching the appeal target of £150,000. At the end of 2013 the total raised was almost £110,000.
