We're a local community organisation in our 6th year.
We believe prevention is better than cure!
Why Inward Bound?
Going Outward Bound encourages individuals to test their physical and emotional limits in challenging outdoor adventure programs.
Inward Bound encourages an individual to take an inner journey which relates to what’s happening in the present moment with kindness and curiosity.
Participants in our classes and courses learn self-awareness, empathy, techniques to calm and focus the mind, and mindful communication – the foundations for success in all areas of life.
They also include applying mindfulness skills to daily life, connecting with nature and creative expression.

Our Story:
Back in 2014 our founder Marie Cunningham believed there was a shortfall of help for people seeking mental health support and more so for those asking for help with emotional well-being.
She looked at how she could deliver her classes/workshops for free and sought advice on what was needed to become a Community Org.
Some of the people who'd benefited from her work were keen to help, and they formed the first committee.
Funding was sought and gladly accepted by the Big Lottery and the rest as they say, is history.
Since then, we've helped many people learn to understand themselves (and their emotions) better, through well-being - emotional healing - mindfulness & meditation, and now have two other tutors that deliver classes, including to children.
