Junior Yearly Meeting (JYM) is a gathering of young Friends and any young people interested in Quakerism in Ireland aged 14-18. We come together to meet, discuss, debate, and learn together. There are many fun social activities too. 

A couple of years ago, a new practice was established of inviting a Young Friend from Britain JYM to Ireland JYM and vice versa. It is hoped this will be a good way to help foster connections between young people in the two Yearly Meetings in these islands.

JYM 2026 will be taking place during 2-6 April 2026 at the Moyallon Centre near Portadown in Northern Ireland. You can find some more information in this JYM2026 poster. We’ll post more information here as it becomes available – for now, save the date!
