The Jonas Centre

The Jonas Centre for resting and seeking is a place for all to experience renewal. From the heart of the Yorkshire Dales we provide affordable accommodation in Scandinavian-style log cabins for groups, families and individuals. Our converted stone barn is a characterful space for groups to meet and eat together. Grounded in Christian faith, our goal is that all who come by leave refreshed for the path ahead.

Our impact on the community
Since 1996, we have provided over 1,800 subsidised holidays to more than 3,500 adults and 2,200 children; some who might never have enjoyed a holiday before. We have built networks with many organisations, working collaboratively to reach those most in need in our local communities. Our partners have included: Hambleton & Richmondshire District Council, North Yorkshire County Council, Christians Against Poverty, The Prince's Trust, MIND, St Gemma's Hospice in Leeds,Tees, Esk & Wear NHS Trust, Middlesbrough Borough Council, MENCAP, and Friends of Chernobyl's Children (Northallerton branch).

Subsidised Holiday Scheme
The Jonas Centre believes in the power of rest to renew and enrich individuals and communities. As financial pressures increase for us all, we know that the most vulnerable in our communities are hardest hit. We run a Subsidised Holiday Scheme to provide breaks at The Jonas Centre for a fraction of soaring holiday costs for those unable to find respite from difficult circumstances. To make this possible, we rely on generous donations to cover our core expenditure.
