Coat of Hopes is now in the 4th year of a pilgrimage with no end in sight, having committed to keep walking whilst we remain in a state of climate and ecological crisis. Wherever the Coat goes it carries an invitation to all who are willing; to wear it, hear its song, and stand for a moment in consciousness of our connection with each other, all who have made and worn the Coat before us, and all life, stopping to be present and consider the way we live.
Thousands of people have participated in this way. The journey began in August 2021 with a blank coat, setting out from Newhaven (on the south coast of England) for COP26, the United Nations Climate summit in Glasgow.
