SESSION RECORDINGS
We have attempted to record most of the main sessions in the Grand Hall and Ocean Room – these will be publicly and freely available to all so you can re-watch sessions or share them with friends who couldn’t make it. We are currently collating and organising all the footage and audio we captured, so not all recordings are available yet. PowerPoint Slides for some sessions are available at the bottom of this page.
Friday 14th April
Please note: due to copyright restrictions we’re not able to share all songs / music in our public recordings. A list of songs and hymns used at Flourish is available at the bottom of this page, along with PowerPoint slides for some sessions (not all slides are shown in recordings).
