Explore living and working in our community for a month or more by joining the Living in Community Guest (LCG) Programme. This is a dynamic, creative and purposeful way to explore the meaning of service and to experience the gifts that come through living in community.

Sharing all aspects of life in this vibrant environment opens the space for you to deepen your relationship with yourself, inner wisdom, people, work and nature - creating an ever more meaningful experience of life.

The programme is available in four-week segments, starting most Saturdays. It begins with clarifying your individual purpose and ends with a personal review to support you in integrating your experiences and to explore your next steps. Using the process of attunement you join the team of one of our work departments (gardens, kitchens, dining room, homecare or maintenance) where you can experience 'work is love in action' - the awareness, joy and freedom that arise from working and living in a new and holistic way.

When you want to join LCG for the first time or are returning to do the LCG Programme after several months or years, you need to participate in either Exploring Community Life, Spiritual Practice, or one of our Working Weeks (all requiring previous participation in an Experience Week). You can also apply after having taken part in our month-long programme English in Community or Ecovillage Training.

The prerequisite programme can be done any time within three months prior to joining LCG. We will invite you for an intake interview and an attunement. Please be aware that participation in the LCG programme is not guaranteed in advance. LCG is also a necessary step towards making a longer commitment to the Findhorn Foundation through the Living Education Staff Programme.

If you have just one month to be at Findhorn, you can participate in Exploring Community Life as your first week (having previously completed Experience Week) and then participate in the LCG programme for just 3 weeks.

If you are age 25 or under, we are offering this programme at a reduced price to make it easier for young people to afford.
