Please help Lost Horizon Sauna

[Mark Doran]

You may have heard of the wonderful Lost Horizon Sauna & Solar Stage up in the Tipi Field. It's a great place to relax and revitalise with a sauna, showers, plunge-pool, yoga classes, organic café, live music, trampoline, etc. all in a safe body-positive space. Lost Horizon is a labour of love for its team of devoted volunteers, but love doesn't pay the bills! Attendance at Glastonbury Festival is our main source of income, so this year we're seriously short of finance and have launched a crowdfunder. Please donate what you can afford, however little, to help keep this unique venue going and so we can be back next year. Thank you! https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/lost-horizon-sauna

Bump
Lost Horizon is one of my favourite places on site, the sauna is a great way to start a day and always a nice place to getting chatting to strangers. 

[Mark Doran]

We're doing pretty well so far, reaching 38% of our ambitious target. I know it's a difficult time financially for many of our supporters, but I'm determined that this unique venue will survive. Please give what you can afford, even if it's a very modest amount. Karma tells us you'll be richly rewarded. Thank you!

Just a gentle nudge to keep this thread more prominent. We're doing pretty well, having now reached 46% of our target. Thank you to all the generous donors so far. New readers please consider giving what you can afford, however small the amount.

It’s an oasis of calm 👍

Just a gentle bump to keep this thread prominent. We've now reached 57% of our ambitious target at a difficult time for fundraising. If you can afford to donate even a small amount to help this unique venue we will be hugely grateful. Thank you! https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/lost-horizon-sauna

Another gentle bump to keep the thread near the top. We've reached 65% of our ambitious target, so only a few more donations should see us set fair to return next June. Our hot sauna, cold plunge and warm showers would have been a godsend last weekend, not to mention the trampoline to dry off! Please give anything you can afford, however small the amount. Thank you! https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/lost-horizon-sauna

Just made another small donation. It'd be a sad day the sauna wasn't at the farm.

One final bump and I'll leave you alone. We've now reached 87% of our ambitious fundraising target so just a few more donations will assure our return next summer. Please give what you can afford, however modest. Thank you! https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/lost-horizon-sauna

One final nudge for this topic as we've now reached an impressive 90% of our ambitious fundraising target. A big thank-you to all our generous contributors. Just a few more donations will see us through to next year when we can welcome everyone back to our unique venue.

Nice thanks mate. My first time going to a festival and defo wanna be able to shower haha, the sauna will be an unreal hangover cure aswell.

Would you say teepee fields is a close walk to the main campsites?

That's not really a question that's easy to answer. There's so many "main" campsites. It's close to those near the park and Arcadia, a very long trek from the pyramid.

Yep as above depends where you camp. Sauna is good for pennards, park dairy ground etc or that part of the festival. If your further away and it's hot your gonna be just as hot and sweaty when you get back to your tent after! 

If you camp near it you can pretty much pop in and out all weekend if you get a weekend pass which is great. Especially if it's hot  

There's also free showers at the greenpeace field which are good but it gets really busy around breakfast and you could be queing for ages . 

Also showers in the kids field but I think  you need to have kids to use them

I think someone mentioned dairy fields so should all work out.

Yeah I know there's free showers but really don't wanna wait hours would much rather pay 45 quid for lost horizon lol

How Long is the sauna/shower wait for this ?
