PurposeFest at Belmont Estate
Check out our highlights
PurposeFest Summer Special was hosted at the stunning Belmont Estate near Bristol on Wednesday 4th June. The main event ran from 4pm to 7pm with a number of optional vertically aligned industry/sector workshops (Built Environment, Finance, Digital / Creative Agencies, Travel, Recruitment, Food & Drink, Textile & Fashion)
From 4pm, Belmont opened the Walled Garden and the Potting Shed Pub where the team served a tasty BBQ and drinks.
Other activities during this time included yoga in the woods, wild photography and nature walks from the BE team where they guided us through the ancient woodland, regenerative farm and walled garden to showcase some of the restorative work that they have been undertaking to boost biodiversity.
These were designed as opportunities to reconnect with nature, to food, and to each other. For anyone looking to relax and savour their time in nature, take a seat in the walled garden amphitheatre and enjoy the beauty of Bristol’s countryside.
If you are already a B Corp, on your B Corp journey or simply using your business as a force for good, then PurposeFest is a great place to learn, share and network together.
It is for communicators, founders, teams, agencies, change-makers, decision-makers and those who are curious. Those who want to make a difference but are not sure how. Those who want to hang out with inspirational people already leading the way. Those who need to re-charge, re-imagine, re-connect for the future ahead. Those who love a good conversation between the conversations. Somewhere to get yourself out of your day to day mindset and provoke some debate about the difference you can make.
The event will also leave space to network with many people who feel the same and want to be agents of change. As a community, we are working to shape our future for the better.
PurposeFest first launched in 2023 having been inspired by time spent at Goodfest in Cornwall led by Laura Giles and Matt Hocking together with their amazing team.
Our deepest thanks to them - it’s a fantastic example of a purposeful ripple effect that multiplies impact.
