Conscious Cafe

I am the Basingstoke co-ordinator for Conscious Café, an international network dedicated to building community, making connections and raising awareness one conversation at a time.

Conscious Café creates spaces where conversation moves beyond small talk. It’s an invitation into genuine listening, thoughtful exchange, and shared sensemaking. In a world that can feel increasingly uncertain or divided, we offer something quite different:

  • a chance to pause and listen
  • an opportunity to explore ideas together with openness and respect
  • an experience that helps you to grow and create the life you want

As part of this work, I and my co-host, Jo Brill, put on a number of events.

Conscious Café Conversations involves bringing people together to explore questions that are relevant to our lives and our times. Our next event takes place at Sherfield Oaks Golf Club, Wildmoor Land, Sherfield on Loddon, RG27 0HB on 14th May. We’ll exploring the theme of how to live a good life in times of uncertainty.

Stillness on Sunday takes place on the fourth Sunday of each month. These gatherings include a short meditation, group discussion, some readings and refreshments. SoS starts at 10:30 and finishes at 12pm. We’ve been meeting for over three years, and newcomers are particularly welcome. I like to call this a celebration of life. You’ll leave positive, uplifted and ready to meet the week ahead!

In addition, I host Winter and Summer Celebrations as well as occasional retreats and workshops, all held at my home just outside Basingstoke.

If you’d like to find out more, sample an event, or have a conversation about what we offer, you’re very welcome to get in touch.
