With efforts to find a new venue proving difficult, the hard decision has been made to cancel popular Bible conference Word Alive in 2025.

Since the shock closure of their venue, Pontyns Holiday Park, in November 2023, Word Alive Trustees and Director Nigel Beynon have been searching for an alternative site to host the conference. Being unable to find a ‘like for like’ replacement, however, has prevented them from planning for next year and ultimately led to the decision to cancel Word Alive for the second year running.

‘Large holiday parks are either unavailable or too expensive or both. University campuses don’t have accommodation available at Easter,’ Nigel shared with en. ‘That has meant we’ve been unable to start planning for 2025 and so reluctantly concluded we wouldn’t be able to hold one then.’
