Fellowship of Solitaries
The Fellowship of Solitaries is an informal fellowship for Christian solitaries who do not seek formal status within a religious order but want to be informed and know that others share their avocation. The project has run fourteen years. Membership and a subscription Letter are inexpensive at 3 pounds, (5 outside the UK). Several publications of interest are offered, including a reprint of Rotha Mary Clay’s classic Hermits and Anchorites of England in a spiral binding. The Web site is: http://www.solitaries.org.uk
