Today's events
Local residents seeking outdoor craft and connection have two notable gatherings taking place today.
At The Woodyard near Tetbury, A Morning in Nature for Fathers offers a half-day woodland retreat for up to a dozen fathers interested in personal wellbeing and honest conversation. Attendees will spend the morning outside under cover, making small fires from flint, trying their hand at mindful wood shearing, and sharing a hearty lunch around the fire after a solo walk and group reflection.
Further south at The Henge Shop in Avebury, Avebury Drum Birthing with Toni & Bethan welcomes anyone looking to craft a frame drum and beater for wellbeing, circle gatherings, or shamanic and healing work. Overlooking the stones, makers will shape their instruments from wooden hoops and animal hides, learn drum care and tuning, and take part in guided meditation and group drumming.
