About this Event

This is a group that explores wild spaces and celebrates the changes of the seasons. Connect with nature, each other, and your inner child at our monthly group, which aims to build a safe and wild community for women. Come and join us where you can expect to learn new skills and enjoy lunch over a campfire*. This event may include site walks, so sturdy footwear is advised.


 *Please note fires are weather-dependent. Details and ideas of what can be cooked over the fire will be sent before the event.


FAQs


📍Where do we meet?


Hanningfield Nature Discovery Centre


🥾What should we wear?


Most of our events are fully outdoors, and you need to come dressed for the weather.  We recommend layers (top and bottom), which can get mucky.  Wellies (with thick socks) and waterproofs are a good shout if you have them. 
🔥What should we bring? Is food provided?


Weather permitting, we will have a campfire at the end of the session.  You are welcome to bring something to toast. Ideas include:  crumpets, little malt loaves, toasting tea cakes, sweet waffles, brioche, fruit, e.g, pineapple/mango.  Anything you can warm through on a stick, really – we provide toasting forks.  No uncooked meat or nuts, please.
🌍Where are you based?


We are located in Mid-Essex, local to Chelmsford, Ingatestone, Billericay, Wickford, South Woodham Ferrers, and Basildon.
🚗Is there parking?


Yes. We have a large free car park.
 
🚻Are there toilets?


Toilets are located inside the visitor centre. 
🐕‍🦺Can we bring a dog?


Assistance dogs are welcome at our events.
