History was made as the newly established North Somerset Area Meeting met for the first time in 2011. The chosen venue was our historic meeting house at Claverham. There was a short time of deep shared worship, followed by some necessary routine business. Formal minutes were passed, appointments made and a Governing Document adopted. There followed some free sharing of ideas and hopes for our new Area Meeting. Since then, the quarterly held Area Meeting has met at Claverham once a year and meets at Clevedon, Sidcot and Weston-super-Mare Quaker Meeting Houses for the other three meetings.
After an enforced gap during the Covid epidemic, North Somerset Area Meeting returned to Claverham in November 2022 for full day, which included a workshop facilitated by our Local Development Worker, Jac Blacker. Area Meeting met again at Claverham in November 2023 and 2024 and is scheduled to return to Claverham in November 2025.
