WOMEN GATHERING IN COMMUNITY HAS BEEN HAPPENING ALL OVER THE WORLD FOR CENTURIES.WE INVITE YOU TO COME AND EXPERIENCE THE LOVE OF YOUR TRIBE.

“When women gather magic happens”

Every May and September the sisters gather together, in the heart chakra of the UK, beautiful Somerset. Here we co-create the most magical of community spaces, where we all meet as equals. There are no labels - no workshop leaders, no space holders, no cleaners, no performers, no market stalls, no busy program - However there are awesome women, that gather to share their skills, to join together, to co-create and make a village, a home for 4 days, with LOVE at it’s heart and a FIRE in it’s belly. We come from all all walks of life to connect through our beautiful hearts, to know each others souls, on a quest to speak and love openly, freely, authentically, to heal deeply, and to embody our full potential.

As we gather to create the beautiful Sacred Sister Village, all of these things become very much a part of the creation, but we don’t start from a place of providing you with a festival style event. In doing so, the space we create is held, safe, knowing, loving, powerful, with a deep sense of inclusion and equality. If you have skills to share, amazing we want you to join us, we invite you to share what feels right for you, but we also invite you to drop in and enjoy the full experience from a place where you can “BE” who you are, not just “DO” what you do!! If you feel you have no skills to share, let us open you up to the wonder that you are, just by BE-ing present, because we know you have amazing talents, that will find their way as you find yourself a space of loving kindness and safety.

If you are someone who usually comes to an event to be entertained, what do you bring as part of the community, can you share a story, sing a song, check on the loo, peel some veg, create an awesome altar, tend the fire, collect water, host a dance, take part in a circle, all of you is welcome, and we will support you to show up just as you are, and empower you to be a part of the community. If you are usually someone who comes to sell their wares, perform on stage, tell a story, offer some therapies, YOU are welcome, we invite you to pay your donation to the gathering and be a part of what we are co-creating together. There will be no additional pitch fees for a stall, no specific time-table, no preferential stage times, it all comes together over the weekend, and it will be beautiful. It is the biggest experiment of TRUST there is. To just show up, and know that it will be amazing, JUST AS IT IS, and JUST AS YOU ARE.

Sacred Sister Gathering was set up by Laura, after creating many festivals and events over the past twenty years. Her ability to create a deep space for every woman present and to set up the gathering so that there is a place for everyone, with little effort as everyone pulls together, along with her dedicated team of women, including security, electrician, sound tech, plumber, creativity, structures, caterers and everything else that you could possibly think might need to happen on a site over a weekends event, we have it all covered. We have a beautiful crew of loving men, who support us to create the space before we gather, in helping us to put up structures, transport equipment etc, along with looking after our kids and holding space for us women on the outside world so that we can drop in more deeply, without being mum, lover, cook, cleaner, navigator, instigator and all the other things we have to hold in our day to day life.

If this resonates with you, and you feel the deep calling to be amongst like minded, kind, open hearted sisters, then book your space for 2023 soon. We will sell out, and we like to give everyone a fair opportunity to be with us. YES it can be scary for most of us to think about being in a field of women, after all there is not one of us that have not had negative experiences around other women in the past, not one of us, but Laura set up Sacred Sister Gathering to support the healing of the deep sisterhood wound that we all carry, and to enable deep healing to take place, just by showing up.

Whats the word on the gathering!

  • Shelley

    Life changed when I entered a field full of women I had not met before. It was a scary moment as I wondered if I would be accepted, judged, understood, but I soon realised that the space Laura had created was so safe, held, and it felt like the whole space was held by a beautiful hug in loving arms. Since attending the gathering life has opened up in such beautiful ways. Something truly healed in me that weekend, and it is now a part of my calendar ever year, I would not miss it for the world!

  • Hannah

    I have been a part of many festivals, events and gatherings over the years, but there is something so deeply touching and beautiful about Sacred Sister. The co-creation brings about such magic and abundance in the offerings that just magically appear on the workshop board, the timetable, taking place in the many spaces that are created for us to use. My favourite it always the tipi, it holds us deeply as we share our stories and heal the deep wounds that exist in us all.

  • Annie

    Coming out of my busy office work environment on a Friday evening, hoping on a train from London, getting to Somerset, finding my beautifully appointed Bell Tent, being fed the most nourishing food, sleeping on the most amazing land, being held by the presence of gorgeous sisters, taking an out breath, falling into the deep healing of inner dance, listening to Kirtan by the fire, singing, drumming, creating, hugging, suddenly the crazy world I have found myself in, all became a whole lot better. My cup filled, heading back to London, where I know something has changed in me, forever. Thank you Laura and your awesome team.

The Sacred Sister Village

The Heart Our beautiful Tipi holds our central altar, it is a space for deep connection, holding our sister circles, workshops, story telling. A space where you can be held and heard in the loving embrace that only a tipi can bring.

The Soul This beautiful traditional canvas marquee, houses our main stage, sound system, and allows us all together in one big space to hold ceremony, to dance, to move, to sing, to hold our open mic, and whatever the weather, she holds us all and keeps us dry and warm.

The Mind Our second tipi space, a place for quietening the mind. To drop into peace, meditation, sound, witnessing, grief, love and to discuss matters close to our hearts and minds.

The Body The creation of our healing garden around which we invite you set up your spaces for therapy, healing, body work, our lovely herbalist team, and our well-fairies dwell here too.

Nourish We have an amazing team of sisters who create amazing soul food for the gathering. Healthy, wholesome, free from nasties, vegan, local where possible, homemade, and full of love, along with our trust cafe, where you can get herbal teas, amazing cakes, real coffee, kombucha and snacks.

The Hive This is another traditional canvas marquee, that becomes our space for creativity, sofas to chat on, a place to socialise, eat your food, and to find our timetable boards, along with things to buy, it is the hive of chat, everyone loves this space, it is the in between space, the liminal, the place to be!

Spa under the Stars After many years in the spa industry Laura is always keen to give women the opportunity to rest, relax, rejuvenate and what better way than to Sauna and Hot Tub under the stars. The place of the out breathe. The space to connect to yourself and to wash away the day.

The Barn Downstairs you will find the cafe, the kitchen, a hive of activity and love, our clothes swap, and more, upstairs you will find the lovely Alice who will be offering her stick and poke tattoos, always very popular, and the beautiful Jayni, who creates magic through her photography skills.

Sleepy Village You have the opportunity to bring your own tent, to stay in a pre erected bell tent, to bring your camper van (limited space), to camp where you choose, by the lake, in a group of friends, or finding a quiet space just for you, we all help each other, and we are quiet by 10.30pm in our camping areas so that you can rest if you need to.

Facilities Running water, flushing toilets, hot showers, are all available onsite. We are an eco village, so we ask you to be aware of your phone/device usage, the land is the key to your rest and wellbeing here, she will hold you, if you just allow her too.
