Hucklow Summer School Mission Statement (conclusion):

We aim to promote diversity at HSS, representing the breadth within our movement, in terms of our demographics, theologies and varied forms of spiritual practice. Summer school brings fellow Unitarians together and allows them to get to know each other deeply and form lasting and meaningful connections. We have set a target of one-third of participants in each year being newcomers to summer school (particularly reaching out to ministerial students and ministers who might attend as part of their continuing professional development), and have managed to meet that target for some years, yet we also value those returning participants who generously share their skills and enthusiasm to help run HSS and maintain its ethos.

Finally, we hope that participants feel a sense of commitment to a very special community of friends for the duration of the week that they are at HSS, and that summer school can serve as a blueprint for a spiritual community.
