Announcing A New Collaboration!

 

On 23 July

 

I’ll be teaming up with Stuart ‘The Wildman’ Mabbutt and William Mankelow 

 

at 19:00–21:00

 

Shotover Country Park

Old Rd, OX3 8TD Oxford, Oxfordshire

 

 

Join us  for a 2 hour nature and sensory walk. We don’t charge for the event but we ask you at the end to make a donation that reflects the experience, enjoyment and value to you during the walk.

 

We will explore the local environment and our inner-selves by actively engaging our senses during the walk, touch, taste, hearing, smell and sight.

 

This walk will focus on experiencing nature through our fingers and feet plus exploring what sound looks like, how it makes you feel and maybe even trying to draw it, with some guidance on recognizing bird songs and some photography thrown in too. 

 

We may do some silent walking, …meditation, birdwatching, wildlife sound recording, plant and general wildlife identification, art, foraging, poetry, maybe even some philosophical discussions in a isolated setting. Lets see what Mother Nature throws at us on the day.

 

Stuart uses sensory engagement with nature as an effective tool for pain management as he suffers with Rheumatoid Arthritis.

 

William Mankelow is a photographer who runs ‘Shot at an Angle’ http://shotatanangle.co.uk/ 

 .

 

Join us,and explore the environment around you and things about yourself that you may have taken for granted or walked past on a daily basis.

 

Booking essential so we can keep an eye on numbers.  to book, just call me or email me!  

 

Meet at the main Car park on Shotover Country Park at the top of Old Road (Headington side).

 

Suitable footwear and clothing for the location and season please. Refreshments you need to bring yourself but we may pop into a local venue afterwards too.
