Modern pilgrimage is having its moment. In times of stress and life transitions, reconnecting with nature along Britain’s ancient paths delivers profound physical, emotional, and spiritual rewards. We make pilgrimage accessible to all, supporting underserved communities and offering affordable accommodation.

Situation
In times of stress, transition, or grief, many people struggle to find affordable, accessible ways to reflect, heal, and reconnect. Modern life often disconnects us from nature and meaningful traditions like pilgrimage, which provides profound physical, emotional, and spiritual rewards.
Solution
The British Pilgrimage Trust will make pilgrimage accessible to all by expanding our library of routes, offering ‘bring your own beliefs’ guided pilgrimages, and growing our network of low-cost pilgrim accommodation. We support underserved groups, including the bereaved, inner-city youth, and those facing mental health challenges.
