GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Her Lighthouse is a UK-based Islamic women’s organisation devoted to guiding women toward a deeper understanding of Islam, supporting spiritual growth, sisterhood, and personal development. Their mission focuses on creating safe and welcoming spaces for Muslim women and sisters of all backgrounds to explore faith, build community, and strengthen their relationship with Allah and with one another.
The Sisters’ Retreat is an annual weekend program designed exclusively for women. It brings sisters together in a serene countryside environment for spiritual reflection, connection, learning, and nature activities. The retreat emphasises community, self-reflection, and spiritual upliftment — offering workshops, nature walks, prayer spaces, and opportunities to bond with like-minded sisters.
