About Us
 
Glastonbury Pilgrim Reception Centre is a not-for-profit organisation -   managed and run by Glaston Centre.

Recognised as being open to all paths, our organisation has been described as a 'living bridge' connecting  the many different facets of Glastonbury. With more than seventy spiritual paths being upheld in in this small, Somerset market town, our services are available to all those who seek Glastonbury's unique aspects.

Our ethos is to welcome all people of all faith, paths and beliefs without prejudice. Our organisation is not affiliated to any specific faith and has been created to celebrate and honour the diversity that abounds in Glastonbury.
  •  We offer practical information and spiritual support to visitors and residents of all faiths and beliefs.
  •  We respect the uniqueness of each tradition, and differences of practice or belief.
  •  We value voices that respect others, and believe that sharing our values and wisdom can lead us to act for the good of all.
  •  We believe that our religious, spiritual lives, rather than dividing us, guide us to build community and respect for one another.​
 Pilgrim Reception in Glastonbury - Our History
Whilst Glastonbury had a well established Tourist Information Centre, the growing number of visitors interested in the spiritual aspects of the town led to an awareness that a centre specialising in informing and supporting ‘pilgrim’ visitors would be of value.

In 2007, a group of passionate and interested people came together and formed a properly constituted Association and the Glastonbury Pilgrim Reception Centre first opened its doors at 1a Church Lane in 2008.
In 2009, it moved to 10b High Street.

In 2010, due to rapidly growing expansion, the present not-for-profit Company Limited by Guarantee, known as Glaston Centre Ltd (GCL) was set up to take over the existing Association and to support the expansion of the project into other fields. A new office was set up at 8a Marketplace to handle the administrative and financial aspects of the company.

At the end of September 2015, the Pilgrim Reception Centre left 10b High Street and, working with the Library of Avalon, set up a pilgrim's information point within the library premises in the Glastonbury Experience courtyard.

In 2017, working with Glastonbury Town Council and Glastonbury Tourist Information Centre, we combined our services and all three organisations moved into the newly created Glastonbury Information Centre at 1, Magdalene Street. 
We would love you to join our world-wide family and look forward to staying in touch with you.
