Grow Mindfulness

OUR VISION
We envision a world where people are compassionate to both themselves and others around them, where the most vulnerable are supported and enabled, and where people live their lives with awareness and kindness.

WHAT WE DO
We aim to connect learners, practitioners and teachers of mindfulness to promote greater wellbeing, resilience and compassion in UK communities. We will do this by:
- Encouraging collaboration and resource sharing for mindfulness teachers through a national membership network
- 'Helping teachers to teach' and spend less time on business development and admin.
- Compiling a directory of mindfulness teachers who follow UK Guidelines and have a commitment to increasing access to mindfulness courses
- Securing funding through grants, creative partnerships and business activity to enable teachers to provide more low cost and free places to those most in need
- Providing accessible, high-quality information about secular mindfulness on a national website
- Delivering specialist mindfulness courses to social workers and others who work with vulnerable people

WE BELIEVE THAT

by learning to become more aware of the present, we can live our lives with greater ease and happiness.
mindfulness can be practised by anyone.
sometimes the most difficult problems have very simple solutions.
connecting mindfulness teachers, commmunities and business can unlock resources to benefit all.
connection and collaboration are at the heart of social change.
WE VALUE

- people and their inherent capacity for kindness
authenticity, humour, presence, integrity and compassion
- those who connect and work together for good: the helpers, the teachers, the organisers, the givers, the creators and the makers.
