Newbold House Community
 The purpose of Newbold House is to help create a more peaceful, compassionate, and sustainable world through being a centre for awakening consciousness, providing transformative experiences for our visitors, guests, and house members, whilst living in a joyful, loving, and authentic way together.
We are a staff of eight adults living in and around a beautiful Victorian mansion with gardens, orchard, and woodland. An independent part of the wider Findhorn Foundation Community, we are situated close to the small town of Forres, surrounded by beautiful countryside and enjoying the wonderful climate of the Moray Firth area. We are committed to creating joyful, authentic, and sustainable living with a spiritual focus, providing a welcoming space for residential retreats, workshops, and trainings as well as local events.
We need people with a wide variety of skills, such as administration, cooking, gardening, homecare, maintenance, and marketing.
