🌿 Why We Need Your Support

We’re in the final stage of transforming a once-forgotten house into a warm, healing retreat - a place where people can come to breathe, rest, and reconnect, but we need your help to bring it to life!

This project is deeply personal.
Dawn, who is a disabled holistic practitioner, has poured her heart and soul into it - using everything from her pension, savings and family loans to the small compensation she received after a car accident that worsened her condition. Despite her mobility challenges, she’s worked tirelessly to create a space of peace and purpose - but she can’t finish it alone.

By supporting this raffle, you’ll help:

✔️ Complete the final renovations – Finish plastering, raise the lounge floor, tile throughout, install the kitchen and bathrooms, and decorate the entire space.

✔️ Develop the outdoor retreat environment – Including accessible decking, a lazy spa, fire pit, plus outdoor cooking space, where guests can reconnect with nature and themselves.

✔️ Launch a self-sustaining social enterprise – Offering holistic learning retreats, rental stays, and private healing escapes.

✔️ Gift rest to those who give their all - We are dedicating one of our three guest rooms entirely to carers of disabled children and adults for free - giving them the chance to pause, breathe, and be cared for in return. These incredible individuals give everything, every day. Your support becomes their breath of fresh air.

✔️ Establish a long-term fund for respite support – To sponsor respite breaks for disabled children, adults that our guests care for.  Respite care is harder to get in this time of economic restraints, lets help people who really need a break!

💖 Your support will help make this dream a reality—thank you!
