FOR LEARNERS
immersion day
A one-day experience of Huddlecraft for people who want to make a difference close to home. Bring a question you're carrying and meet others doing the same.
There's no shortage of people who care - about their neighbourhoods, their family, their work, the bigger questions. What's harder to find is the time, space and support to get started or unstuck.
An Immersion Day is a day for that. You arrive with a learning question of your own. Something alive for you, without an easy answer. It might be deeply personal or practical, broad or specific. A community challenge. A career pivot. A question about how to contribute to climate action with the resources you have. A curiosity about composting or AI (or both). Whatever shape it takes, it's welcome.
Your peers in the room bring perspectives, experiences and strengths you don't have, and you bring ones they don't.
It's a day of purposeful peer learning rooted in your local, built from who's in the room, and oriented towards what you'll do next.
What the day looks like
Morning. We build a shared picture of the local, mapping the signals each of you are noticing about your neighbourhoods, your communities, the patterns you're seeing. Your learning question gets placed on that map, in relation to everyone else's.
Afternoon. Focus turns to your question, and to each other's. You'll reflect on what you have to offer and what you need, work closely with a buddy, and at some point the whole room gifts its attention to one person's question. Even if it isn't yours, something in that process tends to shed light on everyone's, not just the one being held.
We close with reflection, a next step, and an invitation to take the practice home.
What you’ll leave with
New perspectives on your question – and on the wider context it sits in. Things you couldn't see on your own
A felt sense of what you bring — your strengths, your resources, the ways you're already useful to others
Connection to other local people — in-person and meaningful. A small group of people who now know what you're working on
A felt experience of peer-to-peer learning — what it actually is, why it works, and ideas of how you might bring it into your own life or work
A possible next step — sometimes a clear one, sometimes a small one. Not every learning question has a tidy answer, and that's part of the practice!
Who’s in the room?
A group of up to 24 people, each holding a question they want to think through with others. You don't need experience of peer learning, or of Huddlecraft. You need to be curious, willing to contribute, and willing to listen.
Immersion Days are hosted by a Huddlecraft practitioner alongside a local host and facilitator.
Pricing & access
We want the day to be financially accessible without underpaying the work it takes to hold it. So we offer three tiers — choose the one that feels right for your circumstances.
£125 — Supported rate. For those on a low income (suggestion: under £30,000 household income, or if a full-price ticket would be a real stretch.)
£265 — Standard rate. If you're paying for yourself and the standard rate is workable
£360 — Organisation-funded. If your employer is paying, or if you're able to pay a bit more so others can pay less
Can't afford any of these? Please get in touch. We hold a small number of pay-what-you-can places at every Immersion Day, and we'd much rather have the conversation than have you not come.

The Immersion Day is in-person. The relational and place-based nature of the practice means that we’ve put more energy in delivery in-person courses. If you’re interested in online courses, let us know and we’ll see what we can do!

Venue accessibility varies by location. Please check the specific dates and location, or get in touch and we'll share details. If you have access needs, dietary requirements, or anything we should know in advance, just let us know.

Yes! We work with organisations wanting to embed peer-to-peer learning in their culture and practices, and we’d love to deliver an Immersion Day for you. This is handled as a bespoke partnership rather than individual bookings. Head to Work With Us or get in touch directly to start a conversation.
ASK YOURSELF
is it for you?
✔ Is there a challenge — professional, personal or societal — you want to grow to meet?
✔ Are you willing to learn in non-traditional ways that puts you in the room as a peer, not a student?
✔ Do you believe change happens relationally — through people, not just ideas?
✔ Do you want to meet new people and connect with them in deeper, more meaningful ways?
