Amazing Ideas Lab!

Thanks everyone for a fantastic Ideas Lab: it gets better every time and this year was amazing! And it's always the participants that make it so brilliant. This time sharing of often heartbreaking histories and images, alongside intense debates and discussions in seminars and over meals and walks, was all bookended by dancing! And the guest performance and our artist-in-residence made it very special.

I hope your journeys back were good, and look forward to seeing many of you again next year. We have 11-16 July 2016 booked provisionally and we'll let you know as soon as this is confirmed.

And we will have to work out some special celebration for Gregynog V! Any ideas, let us know...
Very best wishes
Jenny
