PurposeFest Summer Special will be hosted at the stunning Belmont Estate near Bristol on Wednesday 4th June. The main event will run 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) starting at 2pm for those who wish to attend. (See below)
If the weather is particularly bad, the event will run three weeks later on Wednesday 25th June.
From 4pm, Belmont will open the Walled Garden and the Potting Shed Pub where the team will serve a tasty BBQ and drinks.
Other activities during this time will also be available. These will include yoga in the woods, wild photography and nature walks from the BE team where they will guide you 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 will be 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.
Kids are welcome to come along and be facilitated by the Belmont Nature-Connection Team (limited spaces).
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.
Main event tickets are priced at £30 per adult and £10 for children
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.

ABOUT BELMONT
Belmont is a regenerative organisation that enables people and businesses to reconnect with the natural world to take action to protect it.
Comprising several land holdings including Belmont Estate and Watercress Farm in the Southwest together with Aberarder Estate in the Highlands of Scotland, Belmont’s mission is to restore land, reverse biodiversity loss and reconnect communities to nature and each other.
The values of education, diversification and restoration have inspired the development of a ground-breaking rewilding and rewetting project, a regenerative farm, a landscape-scale peatland restoration project and a free nature-based education programme, ultimately sustained through the creation of innovative natural capital products for the corporate market.
