During the weekend, two facilitators are employed to run an open and closed group.

The open group allows to people to come and go as they please, participating as much or as little as they choose. The group decides which subjects are going to be talked about, with the facilitator offering guidance and providing a focus to keep the group on track.

The closed group runs in a similar way to the open group, the difference being that you must start at the beginning of the day on Saturday and if you leave at any point, except for attending a complementary therapy session, you are not allowed to return. Whilst many of the subjects covered are similar to those covered in the open group, the discussion is far more structured.

Both groups ask that the confidentiality of the group be maintained, allowing participants to discuss issues freely, and that those in the group respect the views and opinions of the the others.
