Gathering Hearts - Circlewise Community Consultation

An invitation to come together to dream Circlewise into wider being We invite you to join us at the beautiful Creekleigh Dell for a Council Circle for everyone who is interested in, involved with, or cares about what we are doing at Circlewise — a chance to come together and dream into our future. Creekleigh Dell offers a wonderful setting for this gathering, with its beautiful round space, outdoor fire circle and sauna. We’ll spend the day together in circle, with time to connect, listen, reflect and share. This will be a space to share from the heart, listen deeply and vision together: exploring where Circlewise is now, where we feel called to go, and what our place might be within the organisation and its unfolding. It is a rare and precious opportunity to come together, hear where we are and where we are hoping to move towards, and explore what we might offer next. A time to make space for the joys, challenges and mysteries of bringing this work into the world, and to share our interests, hopes and ideas for how we might contribute to the Circlewise way forward. As part of the day we will work together to create a Theory of Change for Circlewise. An explanation, model or roadmap of what change is needed, how it will happen and how we will know if its happening . We will follow a step by step process to connect what we do at Circlewise, to what we hope to change in the world. Using your expertise, knowledge and shared wisdom to craft this directly from your own words & experiences. We’ll also take advantage of being together to have some individual photos taken for the website and perhaps create some short videos to help share what we do to encourage others to connect with Circlewise. Refreshments and a nourishing lunch will be provided, and at the end of the day there will be the option to unwind together in the sauna. Let’s make gathering in circle part of our norm and practise together what we bring to the world.
