Woodbrooke Centre: An anthology of memories

24 March 2023

The sad news that the Woodbrooke Centre is to close by the end of October 2023 marks the end of an era. Whilst, there will be a new chapter for Woodbrooke Learning and Research as it continues and develops, for many of us physically being at Woodbrooke has been an important part of our spiritual development. Time spent at the Woodbrooke Centre, for whatever reason, has been significant and inspiring.

We are aware that it is important to note and share these experiences for ourselves and all who have appreciated and contributed to the Woodbrooke experience. We are, therefore, planning to produce an anthology of people’s memories which will give us the opportunity to celebrate and acknowledge those experiences. We are inviting people to share their memories, and extracts from these contributions will be included in the anthology.

We would appreciate contributions by 1st June 2023, ideally as concise as you can manage, as then we will be able to include more contributions.

Please submit via email to being@woodbrooke.org.uk
