aboutus
Welcome to YARDO CIC. We are a not-for-profit social enterprise building Mental Wealth through evidence-based programmes that strengthen communities.
Our courses and initiatives are delivered by accredited psychotherapists, mindfulness teachers and experienced facilitators who ensure every session is safe, inclusive and grounded in best practice.
Our Board brings deep commitment to social innovation, collaboration and accessible mental wealth. We are now developing YARDO Pro – a continuing professional development (CPD) pathway for mindfulness teachers who wish to extend their work into community settings and share transformative practice more widely.
![THRIVE - A Mindfulness for Women of Colour – ✨Pay What You Can from International Woman’s Day until end of March.
✨We’re offering a unique opportunity for women of colour to join our Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction course, Thrive, with Jemma Archer. This course, usually priced at £300, is now available on a pay-what-you-can-afford basis, so it’s accessible to everyone. ✨Limited spaces available.

This is course can make such a big difference in your life, it helps identify the main struggles we have in our lives and gives us tools to see them differently. I think it really helps reclaim your life back from anxiety and stress and learn to truly take care of yourself

Samia & Bernadette delivered an amazing course with some lovely, creative women. Really glad I did it. Strong and powerful.
SHIRLEY
Participant, Mindfulness & Self Compassion
“At first, I felt a little anxious, I did not know what to expect. Life experience was a little difficult for me and I felt completely lost.
The retreat was a very positive experience that left me totally refreshed and at peace with myself.
LUCIA
Participant, Dong Sticks - Mindful Movement
It is hard to describe but when you get into the flow of it is brilliant. I loved being in nature, the feeling of stretch and centredness that I got at the end. I would absolutely come back.
