SUMMARY:Mens Volunteer Wellbeing Group
DESCRIPTION:The weekly sessions are aimed at men wanting to improve their mental and physical well-being. Every Thursday afternoon we will be doing a different activity from drystone walling\, wood-turning\, black-smithing\, dead hedge creation\, tree-planting\, log store construction\, site maintenance and more. All tools and equipment are provided and plenty of help and support is provided so you will learn some new skills along the way. Each session will also involve a break for a brew and a slice of cake. On cold days we will get a campfire going and toast a marshmallow or two.\nThe practical tasks will be led by Peter Roworth\, a local landscape gardener. The sessions are relaxed and informal – you do not have to attend every week.\nThe sessions are free to attend but you must register your interest here (by buying a free ticket on our website). A maximum of 20 places are available each week. If you would like more information please message us (info@wildwooddays.co.uk) or ring/text 07910 476274.
