Walk in the Park

Family walking workshops

Bestselling children’s writer Ben Hoare took two groups on a gentle guided nature ramble. He shared amazing facts from his new book Shapes of Nature as we hunt for all sorts of nature’s treasures, using different senses. Young families were able to engage with the natural world in playful, immersive and creative ways.

Missed out on the walk but want to buy the book? Pop into FOLDE Dorset on Shaftesbury High Street for a copy.
