In previous years, donations have covered one third of the Jonas Centre’s running costs. In 2024 donations made it possible to welcome more than 50 churches and Christian ministries to the Centre, as well as over 200 individuals in desperate need of a respite break. We continually aim to set our prices well below commercial rates so that we can keep retreats accessible to everyone.

Due to rising costs, our income from donations this year is forecast to cover just one fifth of core expenditure. We’re aiming to raise this back to one third so we don’t pass these costs onto our guests.

But we can’t do it alone. That’s why we’re looking to grow our community of supporters, who are partnering with us to keep the Jonas Centre accessible for all.
