It is with great regret that we have to close Friends House from Thursday 5 November to comply with the national lockdown in England.

If you have a meeting booked with us between Thursday 5 November and Wednesday 2 December, please contact our events team by email, and they will be able to assist you.

This is a big blow to our COVID-safe event venue. Even though we have successfully held events since reopening in September and received great feedback from customers, our venue has to close once again. 

We do welcome the extension of the furlough scheme until the end of November but as we have stated before this just won’t be enough to rescue the events industry.

Paul Henderson-Grey, CEO of Quiet Company: “This is another setback in what has been the most challenging year for our company. I’d like to thank our team who went above and beyond to make sure the venue was safe for everyone. I’d also like to thank our customers for standing by us, either by booking a meeting recently or by choosing to postpone their event to next year.”

Like many of you, we try to stay positive. We know there will be better days. In the meantime, you can still book meetings for 2021 on our newly redesigned website.

We wish you all well.

Take care.

The team at Friends House
