The Quaker tradition holds a distinctive place within British church life. Quakers, formally the Religious Society of Friends, began in seventeenth-century England through the preaching of George Fox. British Quaker worship is mostly unprogrammed: Friends gather in silence and speak only when moved to do so. Britain Yearly Meeting has around 450 local meetings and roughly 20,000 members and regular attenders. The tradition traces its modern form to the 17th century. As a measure of its reach, the wider family today counts roughly 20,000 members and attenders in Britain.
The church stands within the wider Christian life of England, where the parish system has shaped local life for more than a thousand years. Blackpool lies within Lancashire, whose county town is Preston. Visitors are welcome, whether you live in Blackpool or are simply passing through.
