The question was posted by Beth on 09/06/2026 13:59:37

I was due to attend SOFest 2026 next week in Essex, from Tuesday 16th to Thursday 18th June, but sadly, due to my brother’s ill health – he has stage 4 cancer – I need to be available to support him at the moment.
I would have loved to be there and I am genuinely disappointed to miss it. It looks like a brilliant few days of learning, connection and reflection.

Rather than let the place go unused, I would love to offer it to someone in your wonderful community. The full price is £1,452 + VAT, which I have already paid, but I would be very happy to offer the place in return for a donation to my Macmillan JustGiving page, https://mightyhikesfundraising.macmillan.org.uk/fundraising/beths-fundraising-page627

The ticket includes:
• accommodation in a shared bell tent with one other person
• all food
• access to all workshops and sessions

SoFest is a three-day, two-night festival for facilitators, trainers and coaches – although really, it is for anyone who creates space for others to grow.
You can read more about the full programme here:
www.schooloffacilitation.com/sofest


It is designed as a chance to step out of the usual “deliver, deliver, deliver” rhythm and reconnect with your craft, your people and yourself. There will be practical learning, generous conversations, peer-led sessions, fresh air, campfires, shared meals, walks, swims and proper time to think. It feels like the kind of experience where you might go for the workshops, but come away with new ideas, new connections and renewed energy for the work we do.


If anyone would like to take up my place, they can contact me directly as soon as possible. It will need to be on a first come, first served basis as time is very short.

All the best,
Beth ([email protected])

Hi Beth I would have loved to take up this opportunity, it is right up my street. I'm off to my first festival this weekend and have a packed summer ahead and so unfortunately I wouldn't be able to take up your offer. I did just want to say what a lovely thought to offer it to someone here. I will be visiting your justgiving page, and wish your brother peace and calmness during his illness, and I wish you well too in your role as carer. Best wishes all round.
