The new Sanctuary – take a look

Sanc ext

Carefully chosen colours, specially made-to-measure chairs and more – our new Sanctuary, the Light of Findhorn, is coming to life.

At the same time as it physically emerges, a group has been meeting regularly in the Original Garden alongside to anchor it energetically, ready to welcome everyone back into the heart of the community.

Since building started in April this year, the Sanctuary has blossomed into being. Take a look at the journey over 2024.

The building team from Green Leaf Design and Build started in April 2024, and they’re due to finish this month.

For more details on the Sanctuary build visit Park Ecovillage Trust, and read a beautiful history by John Willoner, who helped build the original Sanctuary in 1968.

There’s also a wealth of stories about the Sanctuary and blessings ceremonies on Celebrating One Incredible Family (search on Sanctuary).
