Kennet and Avon Boating Community Website

As part of a joint community arts project focusing on mental health, well-being and mindfulness, Julian House Travelling Communities Support Service is holding a number of craft workshops for liveaboard boaters who need support with these issues.

The first workshop will be held over the weekend of 25th and 26th November 2017 at Avoncliff Aqueduct. Led by Sophie Shenstone, it is a two-day living willow workshop helping to build a living willow fence at the Aqueduct as part of a new community garden.

The Canal Ministries boat Litania will be on hand to provide hot drinks and lunch. The event is FREE but there is a limited number of places. If you, or anyone you know, would benefit from this workshop, please call of text 07960 097719 or PM the Gypsy, Traveller, Boater & Roma Community Support Service Facebook page. The workshop is funded by Julian House and the Canal & River Trust.
