About Wild Swimming Woman
Tara is on a mission to help women bring a little more wild and joy into their everyday lives, through nature connection and swimming outdoors. As a qualified and experienced open water swim coach she ensures that everybody feels safe and supported and celebrated, whether it's your first ever dip or your millionth.
About Love Makers Cafe
The Love Makers Cafe exists to celebrate making, curiosity and community. Whether you're a dab hand already but fancy some company, or you haven't picked up a brush since school: you are welcome.
An antidote to the pervasive perfectionism, loneliness and tech overwhelm of modern life, this is a space where play and experimentation, easy conversation (or companionable quiet) and working with our hands is encouraged.
£96 (includes all craft materials, lunch and cake)
Suitable (and encouraged) for people new to crafting (or who think they're bad at it) and people new to wild swimming.
