Sunday Meeting for Worship
Held every Sunday at 10.30 am (lasting one hour). We are delighted to see visitors and new attenders, who will be specially welcomed on the door. Tea and coffee is provided afterwards and is a good time to meet some of us.
Mid-Week Meeting for Worship
is held on the second and fourth Tuesdays of the month from 7:15-8 pm. It is usually smaller than the Sunday morning meeting and followed by tea and chat (and sometimes a trip to the pub!)

Children's Meeting
We have a thriving and growing children’s meeting with three groups for children of different ages every Sunday in term time and a single all-age group during the holidays. See Children and Young People for more details.
Business Meeting
Our regular business meeting (Local Meeting for Business) is held on the first Sunday of most months after Meeting for Worship, beginning at 12 noon.
Learning
We have a rolling programme of learning for both newcomers to the meeting and Friends who have been members for many years. These include weekends away, study groups and one- off 'extension Meetings' after Meeting for Worship on Sundays. There is also a regular strand called Becoming Friends, intended especially for new people. Most events are open to everyone and are announced in our notices, the newsletter and posted here on the Diary Dates page.
The Quaker Ukulele Orchestra of Forest Hill
otherwise known as "Quo without the Status"! This was formed in September 2009 and meets about once a fortnight. Newly interested parties are always very welcome to come along.
Book Group
This meets every 5 or 6 weeks, usually on a Sunday evening in the Meeting House. We talk about a book and have some drinks and snacks and quite a few laughs. Anyone is welcome even if they haven't read the book.
Stitching in the Kitchen
We meet once a month to chat while working on our various individual or group projects and eating a bit of cake, sitting in the kitchen because the light is better and it just feels good
Shared Meals, Summer Social and Christmas Lunch
We have regular events eating together. These include our Summer Social and Christmas Lunch. There is often a simple shared lunch after other events
Issues and Campaigns
Quakers work actively to make this a better world. As individuals and as a Meeting we support a variety of charities in line with our testimonies for peace, equality, simplicity, truth and sustainability . We have monthly collection for a good cause and ongoing support for various charities and issues such as Lewisham Churches for Asylum Seekers (LEWCAS) who provide a weekly box of basic foodstuffs for, at present, 12 destitute asylum seekers and work with other faith groups and local organisations to support refugees from the conflict in the Middle East.
