Our in-person members meeting for 2026 will take place in London* at NCVO (The National Council for Voluntary Organisations), Society Building, 8 All Saints Street, London N1 9RL, on Saturday 25 April 2026.
Members are warmly invited to our in-person Spring Open Meeting in London, at which we will consider ageing in Camphill.
As we grow older, what we want and need from life changes. Our Camphill communities, alongside families and friends, have a crucial role to play in providing the right support for our loved ones as they move into later life.
We’ll hear from Bilge Hunt, Manager at The Lantern Community in Hampshire, about how they support people as they grow older. There will be a chance to think about what ageing can mean for our family members, how support may evolve, and what families might find helpful to think about early on.
As always, there will be lots of time for catching up with other members and for discussion of matters affecting our relatives and friends living in Camphill communities in the UK.
