Suggested Donation

The suggested donation for this day-long workshop is £35-55. This is what the Jesuit Institute needs to cover our costs and to support our work of making Ignatian spirituality available to as many people as possible. However, if you are unable to donate this amount for any reason, please offer what you can (or even nothing at all!). All are most welcome to attend. We will send you information about making a donation after you book.
