what’s on

you are welcome

Personal day retreats … and a chance to unload

You can visit for as long as you wish,  Thursday – Saturdays between 9 am – 4 pm, BUT you do need to book in advance.  Just drop us an email or text to check;  and then come and  find your own space and read, pray, linger, sit and think – as you wish. There is no charge for spending time at Breathing Space Coventry; donations are invited for those who can afford to contribute.  We want people to feel free to come – you are  welcome to enjoy the space.  Ellie, or Alison, would be happy to spend some time with you in a spiritual companion capacity. Just let them know when booking. Or just come along, get out of the fast lane and spend your own time listening or using some of the prayer resources we have available.

Group retreats  or team  ‘away days’ 

Your group or team are welcome during the week at times negotiated, so for these days you do need to book in.  We can signpost you to the nearby cafe to buy your lunch (can be pre-ordered), or help serve what your team brings along. There are several ‘break-out’ rooms and spaces for ‘down-time’. Contact us for availability in coming months.

Retreats coming soon….

Paper & Book Making Day Retreat

Please enquire for future Retreats

An opportunity to step aside for a day and think about the story of our lives – as we take time to reflect, pray, learn how to make paper and create our own beautiful book from recycled materials.

Places are limited to 8, so please contact us to book early – there will be a reserve list.

Suggested donation of £20-£30 (please do get in touch if you have a desire to come, but are unable to donate at this time)

Sue Ashby is a mixed media artist – She writes: “I love creating books and sharing my skills with other people. In the workshop I will demonstrate the process of simple paper making for use in a handmade book. The paper and book will be made from recycled materials. The use and purpose of the completed book is a personal decision, but I am sure ideas will be shared.”

Sue is a retired Art and Music Teacher in Primary Education. Co-founder of Kingdom Arts based in Worcester and regular Artist in Residence at the Sheldon Retreat in Devon.
