Andrea
"This retreat has been so much more healing, energising, caring and helpful than I could have thought possible. I can’t believe how much we covered in a short space of time. It has been so beneficial to my mental and physical health as a carer and words will not do justice of how grateful I am for this experience."

"What a beautiful nurturing and well thought out program that catered for carers needs. The balance between education, interaction, sharing and activities was perfect. Jo and Chrissie were aware of everyone’s needs and created a very safe environment for us to drop our guard and be true to our feelings."
