Emerson College, an education charity whose purpose is to develop, practice and teach sustainable ways of working and living through experiential teaching and inner-led change. The campus is set in 22 acres of beautiful botanic gardens and for some of the day, weather permitting, there will be outside, so bring some warm clothes and suitable footwear. We’ll be based in the Foundation Room, a lovely naturally lit room with a fireplace. Given we’re meeting in the middle of winter we’ll be sure to light a fire to greet us and warm our spirits as well as our bodies.
The food is vegetarian made from seasonal, locally sourced, organic produce wherever possible. Much of the food is grown in Emerson’s own biodynamic garden and greenhouses. Emerson can also cater for vegan, wheat-free, gluten free or dairy-free diets.
Emerson College is well connected to transport hubs. Regular direct trains run between London Bridge and East Grinstead and the journey time is one hour. Taxis can be booked from East Grinstead station to Emerson College (15 minute journey). The closest major airport is London Gatwick airport, which is 14 miles from Emerson College. Taxis can be booked (30 minute journey) from Gatwick airport or alternatively local buses also connect Gatwick Airport with Forest Row.
If you are travelling some distance either from other parts of the UK or from wider Europe or beyond, there is an option for staying at Emerson on the Friday evening prior to the retreat.
