Wild About Calstock’s exhibition Calstock Arts is now open 10am-4pm until 28th March. Come and see the beautiful work produced by Sensory Trust’s Walk & Laugh Group and local primary school children. Here are some photos from the launch this week 🥳

Sensory Trust’s dementia-friendly walking group Walk and Laugh were joined by children from Stoke Climsland and Calstock Primary schools. The project involved foraging, bird ringing, bird watching, learning about the Tamar river, as well as a special visit to The Box, Plymouth

Our Walk and Laugh group have loved being involved in this, meeting new young people and exploring new places.

We are launching an innovative, UK wide, inclusive climate action project putting inclusion, equity and nature at the heart of practical solutions to climate change. Big thanks to The National Lottery Community Fund and our partners The University of Edinburgh Trees for Cities and National Wildflower Centre

Looking forward to this. Come and join us?
