The workshop is designed to support the wellbeing of adults by connecting them with nature and giving them the opportunity to learn a new skill or craft. For the first session we will be learning how to whittle mushrooms.
We will start by taking a wonder through the wonderful ancient woodland at Hazel Hill Wood to look for mushrooms to inspire our wood carving. Then we will gather around a campfire to do some whittling. You will learn how to use a knife safely to carve greenwood and transform a stick into a mini mushroom!
We offer a welcoming, non-judgmental, supportive, neuro-affirming environment. The activity will be combined with exploring a wellbeing strategy, such as a breathing or relaxation exercise. Hot drinks and biscuits will be provided. No previous whittling experience is necessary. All activities are optional, so if on the day you'd rather be chilling in a hammock than whittling wood, that's ok!
Cost:
Standard ticket: £32
Supporter ticket: £42 (for those who are happy to pay a little more to subsidise a place for those who can’t afford to pay the standard price)**
Discounted ticket: £16 (for those who paying the full cost would currently prevent them from attending)
**The idea behind 'pay it forward' systems like this is to do acts of kindness which will have a positive effect on others, and in return the recipients are just asked to pass on the good deed to keep the cycle going.
