Photos & sketches of some local Friends Meeting Houses
 
Hampshire and Islands Area Quaker Meeting (of the Religious Society of Friends of Britain) covers most of the English County of Hampshire plus the Isle of Wight and the Channel Islands, with local meetings in the following places:   
Andover     Basingstoke
Winchester     Alton
Southampton     Portsmouth
Hythe     Isle of Wight (Newport)
Alderney     Guernsey     Jersey


    
       
      

The key common ground among the whole world family of Friends:

(1) the centrality of inward encounter with God and revelation, and

      forms of worship that allow this to be experienced


  (2) a way of doing church business based on the idea of corporate

        direct guidance rather than voting


    (3) the spiritual equality of everyone


      (4) the preference for peace and pacificism rather than war, and

            the commitment to other forms of social witness
