About

The Story

In a moment distilled in memory; with feet in the sand and waves crashing in front, an idea dawned. A dream that now is becoming reality. Cherish.

The idea to create a place in the inner city where people could be welcomed to safely rest, and be nourished and cared for.

I had been working very hard over an extended period of time. Self care was imperative for my own well being and also for the wellbeing of the teams I was working with.

We heal ourselves and then we can make our unique contributions to the world.

The Aspiration

To provide a sanctuary in the middle of the city. A place where anybody is welcome and can experience a sense of belonging. A community fostering peace.

Come to Cherish to feel home.
To feel home in this space and with this community, but also to feel home within yourself, and to feel resourced to carry that sense of home with you into the world.

By finding peace and love within ourselves, we find peace and love for the world.
