Courses and Events
Want to learn how to weave with wild plants?
You're in luck!
I run a 4 part 'Weaving with the Seasons' series at the Woodland Skills Centre in Denbigh, North Wales. These courses are a great way to go deep into all things Wild Weaving, and can be booked as a block or as stand alone courses.
On each course we work with the seasons to learn how to sensitvely and responsibly forage, prepare and work with a variety of wild materials using a range of traditional and innovative basketry techniques- your eyes will be forever opened to the wonderful craft possibilities that exist in every garden, hedgerow, riverside, bog and wasteland!
I also offer a variety of one day courses, and I'm available for one to one bookings and private courses.
I also deliver nature-based wellbeing sessions, which form the main part of my work. These are gentle, supportive sessions using weaving, foraging and time outdoors to help people connect with themselves, each other and the landscape.
They are free to access and run in collaboration with partner charities - usually through organisations such as Coed Lleol Small Woods and Oriel Davies Gallery , as well as others across Mid Wales - with attendance arranged directly through them.
When opportunities are open to the public I will update via my social media and newsletter.
