VEDS Retreat Weekend 2025
Welcome to the VEDS Retreat Weekend at The Cliffs Hotel, Blackpool
We are delighted to announce the next vEDS retreat weekend will take place at The Cliffs Hotel in Blackpool Friday 1st - Sunday 3rd December, 2025.
Thanks to the Big Give campaign during 'Small Charity Week' hosted by Global's Make Some Noise we raised a fantastic £10,000 including match funding to help makes this possible.
The retreat weekend will be a free all-inclusive stay at The Cliffs Hotel with lots of free time for our members to meet each other and make life-long friends for 2 adults and up to 2 children under 14.
The Cliffs Hotel is a family-owned hotel on Blackpool’s beautiful seafront. Relax during your stay with a swim in the heated indoor pool or hit the gym and make the most of the facilities. With areas and activities for everyone, The Cliffs Hotel offers the perfect blend of relaxation and fun during your stay with us.
The Cliffs Hotel has a fantastic selection of locally sourced, delicious food daily. There is something for everyone, from homemade desserts to a rare of hot and cold choices.
Please note we can only allocate 1 free room per family (2 adults and up to 2 children under 14) with priority given to members who have not attended a previous retreat weekend.
Additional rooms can be added at a subsidised rate of £450 payable to Annabelle's Challenge.
