Friend House refurbishment plans approved

by Elinor Smallman 27th July 2012

The refurbishment of Friends House, London, was granted planning permission by the London Borough of Camden on 19 July.

Rowena Loverance, co-clerk of the Project Board, said: ‘We are delighted that London Borough of Camden has recognised our innovative plans to make Friends House a more versatile and sustainable building, with a newly-configured Large Meeting House at its core.’

She added: ‘A haven in the busy city, but expressive of radical ideas, we hope it will proclaim Quaker values into the twenty-first century and help Quakers reach out to the wider community in London and beyond.’

Work will begin in mid 2013 and be completed in 2014.
