# Event Details - **Event Name**: Circle for People Living with Chronic Illness - **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 16 May, 2026 at 03:00 pm – Sat, 16 May, 2026 at 05:30 pm (+12:00) - **Event Description**: Circle for People Living with Chronic Illness. We would be honoured to welcome you into a safe space for sharing what really needs to be heard about your individual journey with Chronic Illness – however you define that to be. It is our intention to create a balance of sharing our challenges with other kinds of sharings – such as our strengths, insights, gifts and resources. You may wish to spend some time beforehand to think about things which nourish you ~ such as people, places, animals, aspects of nature, colours, scents, music, arts, favourite foods, teas, personal blankets etc. Some of these you could choose to bring with you, or have set up for you to return to afterwards. The setting Obviously this is not in New Zealand!! I will add a map when soon. the address is Druid Wood Ashburton TQ13 7HG. Druid Woods near Ashburton, is a lovely woodland setting, allowing for a bit of nature connection. We will sit around a fire and there is a over for light rain. (In the event of more heavy rain we will try to relocate.) There are benches with cushions, but you are welcome to bring alternative seating, such as a camp chair. Teas and snacks will be available. There is a compost loo. In terms of accessibility - if you haven't been there before please do get in touch. There is a 3 min walk, gently uphill, from the parking area, but for those for whom that is too difficult, there is space for a couple of cars near the seating area, and we can always arrange to bring you up there if necessary. There is also the possibility of wheel chair access. Cost & Booking We are asking for a donation of £5 - £25, if this is too much for you please do get in touch.
