The first ever retreat for female Social Entrepreneurs
Are you a female social entrepreneur or social enterprise leader looking for an opportunity to connect with other power-house women, leading in their field, whilst having time to reflect and plan on your own journey and role?
At times Social Entrepreneurship is lonely, tiring and unrelenting. It can feel like an uphill struggle. And yet we continue along it's journey because it also fills us with purpose, joy and energy.
Since starting as a social entrepreneur in 2013 I've dreamt of a place to go to connect and learn with other female social entrepreneurs, to take time out of the day-to-day running of things to plan the period ahead and rejuvenate.
In 2019, I seriously started looking for retreats that met my needs, as a social entrepreneur, but I couldn’t find anything (not in the UK at least).
So I decided to create my own.
And in January 2020, I ran my very first retreat for female social entrepreneurs. As far as I know it was the first of it’s kind in the UK.
It sold out!
And 11 amazing souls joined me a beautiful setting on the Llyn Peninsula in north west Wales. It was an idyllic setting and a wonderful property, away from it all.
At the heart of it is our passion for creating social and environmental change.
That's what this Social Entrepreneurs Retreat is all about - 3 unique days of connection, learning, social impact planning and rejuvenation in stunning surroundings that inspire and relax.
What’s included?
Connection. Time and space to connect with nature, yourself and other power-house women leading incredible businesses for change.
Learning. Tailored sessions designed around your needs and interests in an idyllic and peaceful setting so you can take it all in, plus group coaching and support.
Social impact planning. As an Impact Strategist and Business Coach it wouldn't be me if we didn't include time for you to plan your social impact, measurement and communications for the period ahead.
Rejuvenation. My retreats are also about giving you time "out of the office" to relax and step back. So there'll be time for relaxation (yoga, journaling, reading, sleeping, country walks, and maybe a wild swim) as well as expertly cooked nutritious cuisine, good wine and afternoon tea.
Covid-19 put a stop to my plans of running 3 more retreats in 2020 but I plan to restart my retreats in Autumn 2022 (as I’m about to go on maternity leave).
