The ERGO Styling Tools UK Annual Retreat proved to be a weekend of inspiration for the entire team. Held in the breathtaking Castle at Castle Eden near Durham in January, this was a gathering not just to thank, but to inspire, connect and elevate the entire ERGO UK Ambassador and Education Team.
The retreat, hosted by ERGO UK’s Jonty Olivier and Janie Tongue, brought together team members from all over the UK despite snowy conditions, offering them a weekend of reflection, celebration and camaraderie. The grand surroundings of the castle were only the beginning of a memorable experience. From a scenic woodland ramble to spiritual healing therapy, from an exhilarating Awards Ceremony held in the castle’s dungeon to an entertaining Murder Mystery Night where attendees embraced the glamour of the Roaring 20s, every moment of the retreat exuded the company’s meticulous attention to detail and commitment to creating lasting connections.
What truly set this event apart wasn’t just the stunning location, but the powerful sense of belonging felt by all attendees. ERGO UK demonstrated that their brand is not just about styling brushes, but about fostering a movement rooted in passion, innovation and a shared vision for the future. The retreat was designed to integrate each member into the heart of the company’s mission, reinforcing how every person involved is not just part of a team, but part of something greater.
During the weekend, inspiring stories of personal and professional growth were shared, reminding everyone why ERGO UK is more than just a company—it is a family. The success of the retreat was reflected in the collective energy and enthusiasm of the team, with everyone leaving feeling more inspired than ever to continue making a meaningful difference in the industry.
ERGO UK’s Annual Retreat was a perfect testament to the fact that passionate people drive real change. As the team departed from Castle Eden, it was clear that this gathering would have a lasting impact—one that would propel the brand and its mission forward for years to come.
