Hope Springs Trust is based in the village of Wishbourne in Gloucestershire, near the town of Grafton-on-Severn. HoST is based in an old school in the centre of the village with:

• solar heating
• wind power
• reedbed filtration sewage systems
• regular communal events
• we like to try alternatives, so whether it's lunar horticulture, vegan haute cuisine, yoga or astral meditation - we've probably had a go!
