An immersive retreat for men wanting to rest, reflect and delve deeper .

Drawing on the inspiration of recent men’s movements and more ancient traditions of rites of passage Journey Into The Wild is a national led retreat with a difference. Now in its 7th year, the event takes place again in the stunning setting of The Westwood Christian Centre nestled in the Pennine hills with awe-inspiring landscapes & walks. See www.westwood-centre.org.uk

There will be times of physical activity as well as reflection with the purpose of enabling men to discover their purpose, life direction and energy to live fully.

As well as venturing out into the winter landscape, there will be thought-provoking indoor sessions exploring archetypes and rites of passage and time for men to share in small groups.

Some things to expect are walking, feasting, praying, thinking, storytelling, meditating, campfires, watching, waiting....

Tony Vino, a comedian and writer for Sorted Men’s Magazine and serial podcaster on men’s issues. www.tonyvino.co.uk

Rev'd Mark Cowling, a vicar in Bolton and founder of Third Space a charity aiming to inspire, unite and support young people. He is also the author and pioneer of Fit for Life, a course on mental & physical wellness.
