Newsletter -- Chisholme House, May 2026

On Khidr’s Day, May 6th, the programme for spring and summer this year was launched. This followed five days of enquiry into Chisholme both as a school, and as an Intentional Community.

Further reflection on this is ongoing, and the daily programme reflects this renewed intention.
Those coming to Chisholme at any time this spring and summer, as well as those already here, are now able to participate in all aspects of the education offered – meditation, study, work and devotional practices.

There are also courses and events scheduled, including Discovering Unity study weeks and a weekend, three Foundations of Natural Intelligence (FNI) courses as well as time with particular focus on the garden.
See the calendar of events here:

Preparation continues towards the Six-month Course of Intensive Esoteric Education proposed for Winter 2026/27
You can read more about the retreat course here>>>
If you are interested in the course for this coming winter or in the future, please enquire by email to admissions@chisholme.org

Finally – thank you to all those who have supported Chisholme by responding to the recent appeals:

  • The new doors for the retreat facility
  • Commissioning of the Heritage Impact Assessment
  • Funds for the new ironing machine

As a way of participating through giving this is deeply appreciated.

For all enquiries please email secretary@chisholme.org

With love,

From the Principal Group
Hiroko Nagato Apthorp, John HIll, Nuriya Young, Jules Witford, Hakim Young,
and from all at Chisholme
