What is Swanwick?
With a family friendly format, Swanwick is targeted at ALL age groups within the spiritual family. We cater for toddlers to octogenarians – literally everyone is welcome!
The weekend offers time and a location in which all members of the family can enjoy focused and considered Bible study in a familiar format.
Alongside the main study sessions, our children are catered for from crèche age all the way through the school years, with age-specific classes. This leaves parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles to enjoy their own valuable time together. Throughout the weekend, there are also a number of activities specifically for children and families.
The Hayes Conference Centre is in a perfect rural setting for a weekend away from the world. It has been developed into a high quality purpose built centre with en-suite rooms and modern facilities.
The Family Weekend Concept
To remove pressure for everyone, especially young families, the programme timings have been tweaked over recent years to provide more flexibility and choice. For example:
► Less rush – revised timings for meals and sessions
► Tables in the dining room can be allocated for specific families
► The Crèche has a better audio/visual link to the studies
► Organised sports activities for young people
► There's more time for choice-based study/discussion sessions
► Opportunities to read / discuss spiritual things later into the evening
► More sessions where we worship together as a whole spiritual family
So, why go to Swanwick?
Swanwick is unlike any other study weekend! It’s a great mix of study, activities and free time, with the unique benefit being together on-site for the entire weekend. Have a quick read of people's feedback.
What happened to October Swanwick?
You may have noticed that the October Swanwick Youth Weekend is currently not running – it was sadly no longer viable. However it is our hope that with God’s blessing the May Swanwick Bible Weekend will continue and flourish in the service of our master.
Where is Swanwick?
The weekend is held at the Hayes Conference Centre. This is on the outskirts of a small village called Swanwick, just off junction 28 of the M1, Derbyshire.
