About Othona Community
The Othona Community is a place where people from around the world come together to discover common ground by connecting honestly and living generously, sharing a simple rhythm of daily routine. Othona partners with schools from across the UK to run educational programmes about its unique environment. The estuary is so special it has many environmental designations. It’s marine conservation zone, a Ramsar site for the protection of birds and a Site of Special Scientific Interest. The marshland is home to several nature reserves, supported by the Essex Wildlife Trust.
Now, more than ever, places like Othona and the estuary are vital to people’s wellbeing and I feel passionately that they must be preserved for our future generations and for the benefit of the diverse wildlife. Othona is an off-grid community, determined to be energy self-sufficient. Visitors numbers grow each year, and more electricity is needed. A new wind generator, a source of renewable energy, would solve their power needs but costs £110,000.
