About the appeal

Help us raise £2500 to provide nine free, healthy, creative, socially rewarding days in the Beacons, where Artists & Crafters will share their favourite spots for a walk, followed by a Craft Workshop, accompanied by coffee & cake. .
In total the project will provide - 9 Walks, 9 Workshops, and 9 Healthy Days, leading up to the 9 days of the Beacons Open Studies Crafts Trail, taking place between 17th – 25th June.

We know that walking is immensely beneficial for our wellbeing and for our mental and physical health. Creativity is equally important, providing opportunities to learn new skills, develop confidence and increase our cognitive skills.
Both walking and making are also inclusive and help combat isolation, by meeting friends both old and new!

It will also be the precursor to more walks and workshops during the Open Studios Crafts Trail, where we intend to provide information on how to reach each venue by bus, bicycle, foot & public transport, as well as publishing walk and cycle routes from one venue to the next.

We hope that you are inspired to help us all achieve our aims, and help facilitate events which encourage better health, social activities, and help communities thrive.
If you would like your venue to be one of the centres that hosts a walk & a workshop please contact trevor@thebigskill.com
