Charity Retreats

I am very humbled to be an Ambassador for the Georgia’s Voice charity and am delighted to curate these fantastic wellbeing retreats in association with Pengelly Retreat and a fantastic team of volunteers to provide free luxury wellbeing retreats to young women in need.

During my own life I have experienced periods of feeling vulnerable, as I am sure many of us have. I have been fortunate enough to receive love and support but this isn’t always easy to find or access. My hope is that our retreats reach women less able to attend this level of high quality wellbeing retreat. Many the ladies who have attended in the past enjoy the simplicity of relaxing in this stunning location, being nurtured, spending time with friends, sharing nourishing food and getting away for the day.

These retreat days focus on nurture and friendship, offering space to relax and unwind with familiar peers and facilitators from the charity.

I am pleased to be supported in this project by Kate Levy and other practitioners who also give their time and energy voluntarily. Kate cooks and cares for us and I am the main space holder; offering massage, restorative yoga,guided meditations, a gentle soundbath and crafting activity.

Gratitude to the fantastic Cornish organic skincare company Inlight Beauty who kindly donate a selection of their gorgeous products to the ladies attending for free!

If you would like to gift our eight ladies attending something lovely to go in their retreat goodie bags, please do contact me to discuss, thank you.

“At Georgia’s Voice we provide free, friendly, safe spaces for young women to talk, listen or just be.” Check out Georgia’s Voice’s website for more information or to donate to this much needed charity wwwgeorgiasvoice.co.uk/
