The event will celebrate eight years of Soul Yoga and Relaxation!
A popular local yoga community is inviting people to roll out their mats and support a worthy cause this summer, with a special charity event raising money for Better Way Recovery.
The SOUL’stice Charity Fundraiser will take place at Bracebridge Pool in Sutton Park on Friday 19 June at 7pm, celebrating eight years of Soul Yoga and Relaxation while supporting the vital work of Better Way Recovery.
The charity provides support to people experiencing drug and alcohol addiction, as well as those rebuilding their lives through recovery.
Organiser Katie Russell, founder of Soul Yoga and Relaxation, described the event as being about “bringing people together to celebrate wellbeing, community and hope”.
Better Way Recovery does incredible work supporting people at some of the most challenging times of their lives, and we’re proud to be raising money to help continue that support.
The evening will begin with a relaxed 45-minute outdoor yoga session inspired by the energy of the summer solstice, followed by a shared picnic by the lake. The event is open to all ages and abilities, with participants encouraged to bring family and friends.
A spokesperson for Better Way Recovery welcomed the fundraising effort, saying:
Community support is at the heart of recovery. Events like this not only raise valuable funds but also help spread awareness that recovery is possible and that help is available.
Attendance is free, with organisers asking people to donate whatever they can to support the charity. Donations can be made online in advance or on the evening, here.
Participants should meet near The Bracebridge at Sutton Park (B74 2YR), with signs directing visitors from the Four Oaks entrance.
For Katie, the event is also a chance to thank the community that has supported Soul Yoga and Relaxation over the past eight years.
From the bottom of my heart, thank you to everyone who has been part of this journey. I can’t wait to celebrate together while supporting a cause that means so much to us.
