The Order of the Holy Paraclete is an Anglican religious community founded in 1915 by Margaret Cope at Sneaton Castle, Whitby, Yorkshire, England, where its sisters follow the Benedictine tradition as an active and contemplative order. The community was established to continue educational work and has since expanded into medical and educational initiatives, particularly in Ghana since 1926, while the sisters maintain houses throughout Yorkshire and follow a regular pattern of monastic worship at St Hilda's Priory, Sneaton Castle, where a modern priory building replaced the original castle in 2018.
