Our annual garden party is held on directly after Meeting for Worship. We usually arrange good weather. Drop in any time during the afternoon to meet old friends and make new ones. Bring yourself, family, friends and some simple food to share. Following a recent breakfast discussion group we may have some form of singing/music making. Reaching Out Workshops These are one day workshops on spiritual and self development. Some are run by members and attenders of Tottenham Meeting; others by invited guests. These workshops are intended to help us to get to know each other and to offer a space in a Saturday for spiritual peace, harmony and laughter. You do not have to belong to any religious group. Space on these workshops is limited and there is a small charge: £8 waged, £6.50 unwaged. Please contact us to book a place. No Reaching Out workshops have been planned for the moment while we concentrate our efforts on Quaker Quest.
