They offer different types of training, retreats, and holidays focused around nature, healing, and crafts. Their vision is to grow into a larger Complementary Health Centre, so they are looking to recruit people with whom this vision resonates: who love nature; helping others on their healing journey, and are keen to build a Community Hub. Previous experience and skills are preferable, but heart, motivation, drive, and clarity will be the main determining factors.



As well as continuing to build a Social Enterprise, they are growing community based on the common values of a deep relationship with nature, an interest in self-development, and the wish to create positive change in the world through service. They are happy to assist with relocation for those of you called to come from further afield.
