Coming Home: Changing the World - Around Us Workshop 

Our workshop, 'Coming Home: Changing the World Around Us' was held last Friday at Hesket House with 25 attendees. A hugely successful day. Thanks to all those who helped make it happen. 

Let us know if you'd like to attend a future workshop!

Here's what they said:

"Thanks Ian! Excellent day of connecting activities. I came expecting to gain sustenance for the work I do in the field and sustenance I got!"

 

"A wonderful blending of inspiration, education, music, conversation and connection - to the earth and each other. What Ian and Frank offer is truly unique and will inspire you to change yourself and those you love."

 

"Thanks Ian, amidst all the gloom I can see the new peaceful, abundant world coming and want to be a part of it"

 

"This is the way we all need to learn about ecological sustainability. People act when they are inspired and they intuitively know what to do."

 

"You inspire me Ian - I could soak up your energy for hours. Thank you and shine on brightly"

 

"Very inspiring - I loved the message of hope."

 

"Ian's inspiring workshop reinvigorated my motivation to teach others in sustainable living and reinforced the value of ecological connection."

 

"Even on seeing your presentation again, I am inspired and will take action at home, at my work and in my community. May your workshop grow a fantastic cohort of change agents."

 

"An inspiring day to relearn the importance of connecting with people and the environment and how important this journey is for us all to undertake."

 

"The presentation was as inspiring as ever. The discussion and interaction made it easy to translate into new habits."
