A message from our CEO

Well, we haven’t got off to the best of starts, but we stay positive that we will be able to reopen Friends House and Swarthmoor Hall soon.

We recognise that booking events, meetings and conferences is worrying in these uncertain times, not knowing whether it will go ahead or if delegates will be able to attend. That’s why we came up with the Peace of Mind promise offer at Friends House. We hope it gives you some confidence and reassurance that we have your back and will allow bookings to be moved or in some cases cancelled at no extra cost to you. You can visit the Friends House website to find out more about the offer.

Your safety and the one of your delegates is at the heart of everything we do and your positive feedback confirms we are on the right track. So, thank you for all the great words of encouragement, it means a lot. We are currently working on further improving our catering offer. The team is developing an individually packaged food bundle with refreshments, goodies and treats to ensure the highest level of hygiene. The bundle is designed to be taken home too if not everything is consumed.   

Staycation is the new norm, so if you’re thinking about one, why not go to our hidden treasure: Swarthmoor Hall. You can stay in one of the unique accommodation suites.

Thank you all for you continued  words of encouragement, which mean a lot to the team and myself. I’m personally looking forward to welcoming you all back soon.

Paul Henderson-Grey,
CEO of Quiet Company
