THE REST EXPERIENCE promotes rest as a collective, artistic, health and social justice practice to support and connect marginalised people and communities locally and globally.

REST CIC is a forward-thinking Community Interest Company dedicated to exploring the transformative power of rest through creative and artistic work. Our mission is to promote social justice, well-being, inspire creativity, and build inclusive communities through diverse programmes that integrate art, health, research and education.

Through a combination of artistic expression, health and well-being initiatives, and academic research; REST CIC seeks to create a holistic ecosystem addressing the societal need for rest and rejuvenation.

Our programmes of work, partnerships and schedules are guided by the REST Manifesto, which defines our approach and values. We therefore offer a range of creative rest sessions, events that include voice and breath work, resting and visualisation, movement and walking, picnic s, food and laughter for marginalised people and communities.
