Each of the articles at the start of this issue is written by someone who has experienced or who leads retreats with an activity involved. This may be a fresh idea to many people, hence the theme of this years magazine. Retreats incorporating art or a craft, retreats where you can join in practical work such as gardening or decorating, there are many possibilities. These do not replace quiet retreats; they offer alternatives to those to appeal to a wider need.
Next comes some relevant book reviews and then the listing of over 200 retreat centres, offering a wide variety of accommodation, workshops, talks and quiet spaces. These are set out in the familiar style we are used to, with advertisements on separate pages to the listings which makes finding your way through clear and easy.
I have reviewed this magazine late this year, for which I apologise: it is available from The Retreat Association, www.retreats.org.uk
