Sun Shines on Transition Camp

The first Transition Camp Gathering took place last weekend on what some called the second weekend of summer this year.

Welcome!

The second transition gathering will provide a space to meet transitioners from other places at an event that welcomes all the family.

From a basic framework of activities, the gathering will also provide space for sessions you would like to offer. Unplugged music, story telling, skills, questions, debate, open fires and much more. It will be a time to gather together, a time to celebrate, to share good food, visions for our future, skills and knowledge, have fun, to connect and just be with each other.

The camp site is on a beautiful organic farm in the heart of Sussex at the end of the Bluebell railway line and close to the Ashdown Forest. We will offer delicious food. Children most welcome but no dogs.
