Skylight’s Journey Stones are a unique and innovative gift to encourage people of all ages ( 5 – 100+ years! ) who are going through tough times – whatever the cause. In the colourful drawstring bag is a special card of explanation, and 3 very different stones. Each stone reminds the owner of a different part of their lives. Together they encourage the owner to recognise the difficult things, but also the good and positive things, and who and what can be trusted and relied on, no matter what. They can be used as conversations starters, and as they sit together in their owner’s hand they help to bring perspective and hope. These journey stones have been used in Skylight’s work for many years and because of their simple success, we now make them available as gifts. All proceeds will go towards fundraising for our work supporting people of all ages who face tough life situations.
