The cost for the week ranges from £645 per person to £795, dependent on ensuite, non-ensuite and type of occupancy, and is all-inclusive for accommodation for 7 nights, all classes, evening programs and meals/snacks. Yes, the full week fee covers everything except travel!
The ISF annual events are very special, bringing together like-minded people to share, learn and to socialise together. The events also give the opportunity for members to liaise with other Spiritualists who might be following a similar path, giving the chance to share joys, challenges, and the path forward. At our gatherings, the important factor is the inclusive atmosphere in learning. We may all come from different parts of the globe, but in learning together, we all benefit for our experience and knowledge. Add into that the excellent tutors we have who will be coaching and teaching, and we hope it will be a perfect week!
This year the International Spiritualist Federation is delighted to be at the renowned Arthur Findlay College, which provides a rich Spiritualist history as well as a beautiful and unique setting, welcoming us to come together and to learn! The Arthur Findlay College is located at Stansted Hall, Stansted Mountfitchet, Essex CM24 8UD, United Kingdom https://www.arthurfindlaycollege.org/
