Community Sauna Baths CIC

Sauna, cold water and communal bathing all have well-documented mental, physical and social health benefits. Our bathhouse movement aims to make these available to everyone, regardless of age, background or income. The Community Sauna Baths advocate for a highly-crafted facility and experience, that is inspired by the celebrated cultural bathing practices and sauna traditions of Finland, Scandinavia, Baltics, Russia, Central Europe and beyond. Typically such experiences in the UK are either non-existent, lack authenticity or are behind paywalls of luxury spas or expensive health club memberships. Working with a team of architects, designers and influencers from the exciting new wave of sauna culture emerging here in the UK, our bathhouse movement showcases authentic and traditional bathing rituals through unique facilities. Why it's a great idea: - Set a high UK standard for modern bathhouses. - Provide needed facilities for communities - Promote the life-affirming culture of the bathhouse. - Education around the importance of deep body cleanliness and formulating good habits. - Facility for local communities from a variety of groups to maintain traditional customs around family and heritage.
