Notes from Nurturing Minds
Updates, reflections and behind-the-scenes thinking as The Elsewhere Experience takes shape.
An evening, hour by hour
A look at how the first edition is planned to flow, from doors at 15:30 to a quiet send-off at 23:00. These times are the plan and may change.
A guest of any faith, or none
Faith shapes why the evening exists and how it feels. It is never something a guest has to take part in.
Everything is optional
How we are designing the evening around choice, and what it is and is not.
The quiet space
A calm corner open all evening for stillness, prayer or silence, with no instruction and no one watching.
Join us at the beginning: partners and collaborators
The first edition happens once. We are inviting organisations and creative people to help shape it.
Where we are, and what is still to be decided
The Elsewhere Experience is at concept stage. Here is what is settled, what is not, and how we will tell you.
The seven stages of the evening
A guide to the seven stages we are designing the first edition around, and what each one is for. They are a framework, not a fixed timetable.
Wellbeing you do together
At The Elsewhere Experience wellbeing is something guests do together: moving, breathing, making, resting and playing. Every activity is optional.
Six pillars behind the evening
Six ideas guide what we choose to include in the first edition. Wellbeing leads, and the others support it.
