The people who look after Unstone Grange describe it as ‘a place to be’, where groups and individuals have the opportunity to be many wonderful things, or just themselves for a few days, away from the pressures of modern, daily life.
“People regularly comment on the stillness and beauty of Unstone and its gardens ” says Centre Manager Angela Barney. “ We see it as a wonderful atmosphere in which people can take an interest and responsibility for their own growth and learning in some of Britain's most peaceful and pleasant countryside.”
“Like tiny pieces in a mosaic we are each unique, and form part of the bigger picture by
coming together.” adds Angela Barney. “We celebrate diversity, requesting only that
those visiting us respect the right of others to be different.
And we embrace principles of sustainability, as caretakers of this earth for future generations.”
Like minded people may become Members of The Unstone Grange Trust (a company limited by guarantee) at a cost
of £5.00 p.a. plus the promise to contribute £1.00 towards its debts should the Trust be wound-up.

The guiding principal of the Unstone Grange Trust is Unity in Diversity. We believe that interconnectedness, built on the firm foundation of mutual respect for each other and our differing choices of life paths is the key to the future. We recognise that our diversity is our strength. We affirm the importance of learning to respect and cherish our differences, and from them build bridges of love, tolerance and understanding. We recognise that our chance to be part of the solution rather than part of the problem will be greatly improved by each one of us consciously Taking Responsibility for our own personal, spiritual and creative development and learning.
As our contribution to the collective we are committed to sustaining and managing Unstone Grange as a beautiful place where people can come together to explore and grow in their understanding of life, themselves and others. We make no judgements about what people do here, other that asking that our guiding principals of Unity in Diversity and Taking Responsibility are respected, and that Unstone Grange is left in at least as beautiful a condition as they found it.
We do this in three ways:
Recent residential groups at the Grange include people working in the environment movement, music, meditation, healing, spirituality, singing, martial arts and dance, as well as all manner of community and voluntary sector organisations.
