THURSDAY 7th AUGUST
VENUE: DUTCHIE / OPEN AIR / THURSDAY
Pete Lawrence is the founder of Campout and its affiliated social network Campfire Convention. Previously, he conceptualised and started the Cooking Vinyl label, now recognised as one of the most successful independent labels before he went on to start the pioneering Big Chill festival.
He has been described as a conceptualist, firestarter, community social network obsessive, musician, writer and naturist and is enjoying digital nomad status when he’s not to be found at home on Paros island, Greece or in camper van on a farm in the Welsh hills.
Pete has been an activist since student days, campaigning for peace, social justice and systemic social change. He believes passionately in the potential for personal change through connection and self-organising potential of communities as the spark which can ignite wholesale social change. His work for Campfire places him at the forefront of a non-aligned emergent movement for societal transition which aims to trailblaze new ways of connecting, collaborating and doing ‘politics’ in its broadest sense.
He is about to record an album of new songs - his first in 20 years - around protest, connection, transition and love.
Since being a child, Ruth has been fascinated by how people are in the world, how they respond and react to life and was curious as to what lies beyond the seemingly rather limited ‘agreed reality’ we were entrained into. Fascinated by seeing beyond, over the years she was naturally drawn to the exploration of freedom and awareness.
On her way, she also learned many healing modalities, freeing herself and assisting others to find freedom from the pain and the limitations, gathered from human life experience. She was drawn to whatever ways that she perceived to be powerful, profound, effective, simple and easy!
Ruth's Offering to Campout
"I attended my first Campout in 2022. When Pete asked the people what they might like to contribute I knew that I can bring an effective practice of connection that people can take out into the world and make a difference wherever they go and even in the most challenging of circumstances. Lately I have observed many people expressing various feelings of dismay about events in our world. Wars, politics, injustice and vast damage perpetuated upon the natural life on this Earth. These events seem to be an expression of disconnection. The emotional responses to these events arise and naturally have to be experienced but if they persist they weaken us and can interrupt our connection with some of our fellow humans.... the hardest to love!
Despite an intent to live from the heart in a caring sharing world, those reactions can in themselves disconnect us from the whole. My offering is a simple profound way to restore connection heart and soul. In my experience it changes worlds by ‘changing up’ the resonance in which we operate. To raise yourself, raise whomsoever you meet, and raise the collective consciousness of the whole human race.
An intent that no matter what we are challenged by, we can always offer love. This is our superpower. When we remember to connect deeply, heart and soul and are able to quickly do it, in any situation, we have immense power to radically change this world."
17:45 - 18:45 Taiko Drumming led by Heth Murray

‘Tom Widdicombe: solo viola and song, soundscapes and poetics’:
Tom Widdicombe is a violist, improviser, composer and song writer living in Somerset. Trained in classical performance and composition at the Guildhall School, Tom has now taken these skills into new arenas, playing in folk bands and with singer-songwriters as well as improvising with anyone he can find. Deeply affected by the music of Bach and Leonard Cohen Tom seeks to find a synthesis of these worlds in his songwriting which has allowed for a bold and unique style to emerge. Tom shares entrancing soundscapes and viola improvisations interspersed with his original songs, which have characterised as ‘deeply thoughtful and original, poetry that feels both very old and contemporary at the same time’.
21:40 - 22:20 - Mike & Naomi
Mike and Naomi have been gradually coming to terms with the fact that they have decided to play together over the past four years! Blending their instruments, the viola and the octave mandola with their voices, they perform a mix of traditional tunes and their own songs drawing from English, Spanish, French, and Jewish folk music. The tunes they play range from the mediaeval to our present time, and their songs are a melange of the spiritual, the profane, the political, and the everyday.
AT FIRE CIRCLE
22:30 Shamanic Fire Ceremony
We gather in community to build a sacred fire—a living altar of transformation. As we open the space in ceremony, we call in the directions, the elements, and the unseen allies who walk with us. This is a movement meditation, a simple yet profound way to release what no longer serves us, making space to step more fully into our lives.
Together, we stand in circle and offer our prayers to Pachamama, beloved Earth Mother, whose belly we live upon. The fire receives our offerings—of grief, of gratitude, of dreams—and becomes The Children’s Fire, a sacred flame lit with the intention of dreaming a new world into being.
This is not a fire of the past, but one fueled by who we are becoming. In its light, we tend visions that are life-giving, rooted in harmony, beauty, and care for future generations.
A quiet revolution through flame, heart, and hope
Jessica Mallock is an artist, shamanic practitioner, TRE (Tension & Trauma Release Exercise) provider, mentor, creative guide, and grandmother. Her life’s journey has been one of deep listening—to both the wild landscapes around her and the rich terrain within. Now, as an elder, she walks alongside others on their own paths, offering gentle guidance rooted in experience, presence, and joy.
Jessica brings a unique blend of lightness and depth to all she offers—holding space that feels both safe and expansive. Her work invites peace, playfulness, wonder, and the healing power of laughter.
She is affiliated with Spirit of the Inca, a shamanic energy healing school. Jessica has taken a sabbatical to focus on her art practice this year, allowing space for deep creative exploration and renewal.
Her favourite place is among the trees, on the moors, by the sea—or simply in the quiet moments where nature reveals her poetry, both outside and within.

VENUE: THE DUTCHIE : DAYTIME SESSIONS / FRIDAY
11:00 - 12:50 Julia Black - Lights On
Sometimes we can feel like everything is ‘fine’ but we are not totally lit up. But we are also not deeply unhappy either. A comfort zone. Somewhere many mothers find they have been existing when they first read my book.
It is common for me to receive messages saying ‘I realise I have been living most of my life with my lights dimmed.’
The thing is we can have a perfectly good life shining half our brightness. But right now the world needs us to not hide in the shadows, remaining unseen or unheard because it feels too unsafe to step into the spotlight.
Inside my community we track our Lights On status communally for two weeks on every month. It has revealed so many insights for us as individuals and collectively.
We have:
Normalized negative thought patterns
Identified where in our bodies we feel our darkest emotions
Learnt how to activate radiance intentionally
Most importantly though is we show up for one another courageously vulnerable so others can learn from our emerging wisdom. How does it feel to be a woman in pursuit of leading herself and her family to flourish?
It feels challenging at times.
Joyful at others.
It can feel sad or serene.
We can find ourselves in despair, apathy or rage.
Or we might shift with a flick of a switch into resonating with the deepest love for ourselves and those around us.
We are human.
We are real.
We are raw.
Honest.
Spirited.
We are the strong female lead within our families.
We are here to learn how to shine.
Julia works with women and mothers who are ready to be seen, heard and respected as the Strong Female Lead. She sees a world where all children love learning because children who love learning change the world. Her unique educational blueprint - Lights On® Learning - focuses on the inner game of learning so children, teens and adults know how to fully explore and express their human potential. For her, it is not so much what we learn, where we learn or even how we learn. It is all about who we are being as a learner.
14:00 - 15:00 Louise Broda - Somatic Movement
We all have emotions stored in our body, from past events & traumas. Using a method called Somatic Activated Healing, which involves movement; breathwork; mantra & meditation, it's an amazing way to release stuck emotions. It helps release these emotions we haven't processed or didn't even know were holding us back, without going into the story. Be prepared to move to music, release and feel great!
Louise is passionate about holding space & helping people rediscover the wisdom of their bodies by blending science, intuition & movement. She has been a Physiotherapist for over 20 years. She always understood the intricate connection between the mind & body, also has an MSc in Sport Psychology & a trauma-informed approach to addressing chronic pain.

17:40 - 19:10 Sing Out! with Julila and Pete Lawrence - 'This Is The Fire'
The singing of Pete's first new campfire songs was a highlight of 2024's session and was continued after dark around the fires. This year, JuliLa leads us in learning some new songs (and a couple of last year's favourites) which will be recorded on Pete's forthcoming album 'This Is The Fire' as well as a couple of other community classics. With renewed interest in the legacy of protest music—sparked in part by the new Bob Dylan biopic—we have to ask whether we’re on the verge of a new era of communal singing. Could the next great protest song emerge not from a recording studio, but from the voices of a crowd, in the streets or around a campfire? Beginners and 'non-singers' welcome.
Protest music comes from the heart and the times we live in . It’s a visceral response. But equally, the spirit of ‘Kumbaya’ needs to be reclaimed, taken back from the cynics. It’s needn't be mocked to be starting from a position of utopia,.. dreaming a new world into being through song. These songs don’t always need to be a rally cry or a protest song, but universal songs of aspiration, of love and connection, Above all of hope…and that somehow seems fit for these tense times.
JuliLaconceived SongSPACE Sessions, a Family Singers Class intended to cultivate mini-future musicians on Planet Earth. Her gift is to invite presence while sharing a unique cathartic collection of instant sing-a- long songs to tickle, uplift and inspire.

11:30 - 12:45 Caiti Luckhurst: Poetry and Community - What Can Language Do for Us?
In this session, we’ll have a look at some of the ways that writing and engaging with poetry can create communities and foster meaningful connections. Poetry is, primarily, a means of sharing– and because it’s often short-form, accessible, and free, it makes a great mode of communication. Particularly in the face of the climate crisis and global uncertainty, poetry can be a catalyst for social change, an important method of documenting cultural moments, and a way to meet and engage with like-minded people. It’s an art form which is beautifully available to everyone.
Poetry can also be a really useful tool when navigating personal difficulty. The session will also explore how poetry might help to cope with things like change, grief, loneliness, and anger. Writing through difficult emotions can be a way of figuring out how you feel, expressing it externally. Poetry can keep you company.
We’ll talk through these ideas, and then we’ll have a writing workshop, where you’ll (with however much guidance or freedom you’d like, independently or as part of a collective) write a poem. You’ll have the chance to share and discuss your poem, if that feels exciting and/or useful, and we’ll talk about how it felt to write and what it brought up.
Caitlin Luckhurst is a London-based poet currently studying for a master’s degree in creative writing. She is secretary of the Royal Holloway Poetry Society, where she has run dozens of workshops and open mics. In 2024 she headlined the Surrey Poet Laureate Open Mic. Her work can be found online in magazines such as Ink, Sweat & Tears, or in print in Royal Holloway Poetry Society’s zine publications.

LUNCHTIME MUSIC / OUTSIDE
Hand to Hand
Singing songs from the heart and of the land.
Their message is about love for the earth and connection with each other. Their music centres around remembering that we are all one, and regaining our sense of belonging to the land. Bridging through music the disconnect between modern society and the earth, remembering that everything everywhere, us included, is made from the same universal matter. That everything has life of some kind and we are a part of that life and it of us.
A lifelong singer, Delagh King’s unique voice brings together influences including English folk, Celtic vibes and North Indian ragas. Guitarist & co-vocalist Mal Darwen has played since childhood, and as well as sharing a journey with Praying for the Rain, has accompanied a number of songwriters and bands, working with members of Faithless, The Orb, The Woodentops and others. He brings a singular guitar style to Daykin, underpinning vocals with rich and delicate harmonies.
