Testimonials
“I volunteered my knowledge at SRC to advise on maintenance requirements, as this is my area of expertise, as well as working in Health & Safety.
Working with Chelsea was a pleasure. I found her to be approachable, friendly and professional.
I have volunteered in other settings, and can honestly say her energy and enthusiasm is second to none.
I look forward to visiting SRC again, and would like to wish the new team there every success in the future.”

“This was my first time in a Retreat House, so I wasn't completely sure what to expect, but I loved every minute. Everyone was very welcoming when I arrived. My room was laid out beautifully, and was clean. There was a table and chairs with a view out of the window, armchairs, a hot drinks station, fresh towels and blankets, and a very comfy bed.
The fireplace in the sitting room made the evening feel cozy, despite the rainy weather outside. Walking around the gardens with my morning coffee, listening to the birds, was such a beautiful experience. I hope to visit again some time, as I didn't get a chance to use the pool on this occasion."

“I'd like to thank everyone at SRC for their hospitality. I came as a volunteer, however, shortly before my stay, I suffered a stroke. Chelsea reassured me that I was still most welcome, and that they would understand if I needed more time to complete tasks. I arrived there to provide some relief during this busy time as the new team settle in, but had plenty of time to explore the gardens, which I feel has aided toward my recovery. I hope to come back one day for another volunteering experience.”
