This is our fourteenth gathering and will build upon the magic which is gaining momentum each time we gather. 
Brook End is a Retreat Camp with a crystalline brook running from a powerful sacred spring just outside Glastonbury.  At Brook End there is a log-fire heated sauna and a natural dipping pond, and a lovely flat camping field. It is set under Dundon Beacon, a 2000-year-old Celtic Hilltop Settlement with a sacred spring, and is now a nature reserve covered in ancient woodland with huge old trees and many rare flora and fauna.

Workshops and entertainment run from Friday at 1pm to Sunday at 5pm.  Free delicious vegan food cooked by Chippy @thegathererwild (included with your ticket) is provided from Friday lunch to Sunday lunch.

Reviews from previous Wider Horizons Gatherings

Wider Horizons was without doubt the most profound weekend of my life. Each workshop facilitated a transformation, whether that be through gaining knowledge, wisdom or an inner shift. I left feeling lighter, more aligned and truly connected with my inner and outer worlds. It was so inspiring to be surrounded by like-minded, conscious people; the energy that was curated was magic. I am so grateful to have experienced its subtle but deep impact, knowing that the lessons I learnt will be carried with me throughout my life.
Zofia Page (Age 21)

Thank you to this incredible Wider Horizons family for creating such a memorable, life-changing time for us all in the forest. Truly a moving and humbling call back to nature, to who we are and to what we all came to be a part of. I will hold this close, always.

As a young adult who has been to the wider horizons gatherings for the last 4 years, I think they are amazing and beautifully transformational, they have helped me so much in my life! The gatherings have introduced me to a network of so many amazing people who have helped me develop ways of taking care of myself and my community.
