The taster session is Thursday the 10th of September, 1pm-3pm.

The course is open to anyone over 50, and carers of any age. We ask people to come to the taster session first to see if the course is a good fit for them.

**Please note you may not receive a response between Wed 26th of August and Mon 7th of Sep, but whoever signs up will be prioritised and contacted on a first come first served basis. Your place on the course will be confirmed after the taster.**

The course will particularly benefit you if you are struggling with your mental or physical health, experiencing chronic pain, if you’re feeling stressed, isolated, or simply need a break. 💚

The Mindfulness Garden explores breathworks meditation, nature connection and gardening; offering people the chance to connect, learn new skills, and cultivate self-compassion and self-care.

Autumn is a great time of year to attend, as the site is brimming with bright nutritious produce; tempting tomatoes, plentiful pumpkins, delicious aubergines, okra, and more besides! 🥦🍅🍏🫜

We look forward to welcoming you. 🌱
