Senior Leaders Retreat

24-25 June 2027
Eastwood Hall Hotel,
Nottingham

Every leader needs a place to receive, be equipped, and be encouraged. A place to find community and understanding among other women who just get it.

Your Invitation

Over the last four years, we have hosted several retreats for women in senior church leadership. These have been precious times of connection with other leaders and of meeting with Jesus in a space where we can celebrate the joys—and acknowledge the challenges—of our roles.

If you are a Female Senior Church Leader, we would love you to join us in 2027. Our desire is to make these 24 hours as worthwhile as possible, recognising the demands that leadership places on each of us.

We will open the Bible, make space for worship and ministry, and create time for each of us to leave strengthened, inspired, and equipped for leadership.

Tickets cost £230 per person for an en-suite single room and £200 per person for an en-suite twin room, payment plan available.

We have seen God work powerfully in the past at our retreat and we are so expectant for what He will do in 2027.

We would love for you to join us,
Amy and Rachel.

FAQs

Here are some frequently asked questions.

  • Yes, single rooms are available. Twin rooms can also be booked, if you would like to share with someone you know we would recommend booking for tickets together or at the same time to guarantee the room!

  • Yes, this retreat is aimed at women in positions of senior church leadership, if you have leadership in other areas or are serving your church in another way we would recommend booking onto our main conference

  • Yes, there is plenty of free parking at the hotel.

  • We are trying to be very specific on this retreat that it's for women currently serving as senior leaders (overall church leadership), clergy and ordinands as we've found it's been really precious for these women to have connections with other in the same position (and with similar challenges!) as them. The spaces are definitely in demand!

    We're hoping to put on some more wider events for women in other areas of church leadership in the future as we have lots of student pastors, ops pastors, women's pastors, pastoral leads, operational heads and kids leaders who are keen to get more input too!
