Join Tim and his ten-year-old son Elliot as they set off on a two-part pilgrimage — one ancient, one modern — in search of something sacred.

From tidal crossings to priory ruins, caves of silence to cathedrals of grandeur, they trace the footsteps of saints like Aidan and Cuthbert across the Northumbrian landscape. Then, swapping caves for tents and saints for circus acts, they head to the Greenbelt Festival, where 10,000 fellow pilgrims gather for music, communion, and churros.

Along the way, Tim reflects on the tension between simplicity and spectacle, and Elliot names the real highlight: ice cream. Together they explore what it means to belong, to travel with intention, and to seek God not just in holy places — but in shared meals, messy moments, and each other.

With prayers, poems, soundscapes and silliness, they ask: what if pilgrimage isn’t about where you go, but how you pay attention on the way?
