Ahead of the event, Elaine said: “The Healing Weekend is now one of the most popular events of its kind in the UK, attracting thousands of visitors from as far afield as Australia, Spain, Ireland. Germany and Holland.
“We have an incredible range of stalls and exhibits for people to browse and enjoy, as well as a full program of workshops that run throughout the three days.
“This is truly a first-class event that Somerset can be proud of, supporting top-tier charity, Secret World.”
The Healing Weekend aims to enable people to “experience a wide range of healing and complementary therapies and learn about the possible benefits,” bring together “healers” and holistic businesses, and provide networking opportunities for attendees.
It “also honors and remembers the life and work of the late Bill Harrison, whose vision will always be at the heart of the event.”
