Inspired by Nature: A Creative Workshop with an Outdoor Soun

Join us for a day of mindfulness, creativity, and sound in collaboration with The Hospice of St Francis in Berkhamsted. Enjoy a mindful walk, an outdoor seated sound bath, and a lino cutting and printing workshop. Slow down, reconnect, and create something beautiful in a calm and welcoming space—all while supporting an incredible cause. 

Nestled within the beautiful grounds of The Hospice of St Francis on Spring Garden Lane, Berkhamsted (HP4 3GW), the yurt is part of the hospice's Venue for Good and Spring Centre. Set among peaceful woodland walks and landscaped gardens, it offers a unique and tranquil setting for our workshop. Located in the heart of the Hertfordshire countryside, yet just moments from the historic market town of Berkhamsted, the yurt combines natural beauty with easy accessibility, creating an inspiring space to connect, create and unwind.
