Wander Women

Woodland experiences to build outdoor confidence and inner calm. Designed and delivered by women, for women we will meet twice a month in Hainault Forest and enjoy a variety of different sessions to improve our wellbeing. Herbal teas available throughout - please bring a mug. 11 February: Handbag Survival: what's in your bag and how could you use it in a survival situation? What's in my bag and what should we have in both our bags?! Tips and tricks to keep us one step ahead! 25 February: It's cold and we need shelter! Join us in the wintry woods to learn this essential bushcraft skill: how to make a cosy shelter from branches and leaves. Warm enough to spend the night in….? 11 March: Whittling workshop! Learn basic knife skills or level up! Make essential campcraft items: mallets and tent pegs! 25 March: Our last Wander Women session of the project! Join us to celebrate around the campfire and see how many things we can make from pine needles! Make pine needle body scrub and pine needle soda to ferment at home.
