We need to identify what they genuinely seek and serve those needs in the best possible way. People seek revelation, resolution, breakthrough and a new life. In the coming century, inner change will not be a personal, private, 'alternative' matter - it will be political, social, practical and mainstream. Glastonbury stands centrally in this. Today, spotlights are already turning our way.
People already come in ever-increasing numbers.
Catering for future expansion involves investment, skill, experience and energy. It involves brave choices and a sense of civic, social, collective purpose. And thoughtful, pragmatic solutions. Of course, these ideas will upset some people. Some Glastonians believe our town is nothing special, nowhere special.
