Created by Northamptonshire founders Hayley Brown and Rebecca Robinson of Romany Moon, alongside Holly Wilson of Rise with Holly, The Ripple Effect has grown from a local vision into what organisers believe is the world's first synchronised global sound healing activation aligned with the solar eclipse.

The family-friendly event has been designed as an opportunity for people of all ages to spend mindful time together through sound, movement, nature and community before joining a collective sound activation that will connect with gatherings taking place across more than ten countries worldwide.

Visitors can enjoy sound healing, yoga sessions, wellbeing offerings , independent makers, environmental organisations, delicious local food and opportunities to simply relax and reconnect in beautiful surroundings.

The organisers are delighted to announce that internationally recognised DJ and conscious music artist Luisa Bradshaw-White (DJ LuluOm) will be joining the event, creating a bespoke musical journey leading participants into the eclipse activation.

Luisa Bradshaw-White said: “Something really extraordinary is about to happen. During the solar eclipse, people from around the world will come together for a synchronised global sound healing activation, sharing one moment of sound, connection and intention. I'll be at Grendon Lakes, guiding the musical journey as we gather together, helping everyone arrive in the moment and settle into the experience before the collective activation begins.”

The event will also welcome renowned psychic medium and founder of Psychic Sisters, Jayne Wallace, who will be offering readings throughout the day. Jayne has also generously donated an exclusive prize to The Ripple Effect giveaway competition.

Jayne Wallace said: "Community is one of the most important things to me, and I think we need it now more than ever. We spend so much of our lives rushing from one thing to the next that we've forgotten how important it is to simply come together, talk, connect and enjoy the small moments. That's why I wanted to support The Ripple Effect. It brings people, families and communities together in a way that feels genuinely meaningful, while encouraging us to reconnect with ourselves, each other and the natural world. I'm delighted to be part of the day and to contribute a reading to the giveaway, and I can't wait to meet everyone there."

The Ripple Effect is proud to support 30x30 UK, the international movement working to protect 30% of land and sea by 2030.

A percentage of every ticket sold will be donated to support environmental projects and conservation initiatives.

Nicky O'Malley, CEO of 30x30 UK, said: "Protecting our natural world begins with recognising our relationship to it. The Ripple Effect is creating an opportunity for people to reconnect with nature, community and purpose while supporting tangible environmental action."

Since launching earlier this year, The Ripple Effect has attracted interest from sound healers, retreat centres, wellbeing practitioners and community groups from across the UK and internationally.

The organisers are continuing to welcome additional sound healers, musicians, conscious businesses, independent makers and aligned stall holders who would like to become part of the event.

Hayley Brown, Founder of The Ripple Effect, said:

"The school holidays often become incredibly busy, but we also know they're one of the few times families have the opportunity to slow down and spend quality time together. We wanted to create something that invites people to reconnect - with themselves, with one another and with the natural world. Whether someone comes for the music, the wellbeing experiences, the community or simply to spend time outdoors, we hope everyone leaves feeling part of something much bigger than themselves."
