Ruskin club monthly nature & craft workshops

Join our monthly craft and nature workshops in Ruskin Land. The workshops will be held in Ruskin Land in the heart of the Wyre Forest, and will be delivered by Wyre Community Land Trust’s expert team of conservationists and crafters!

Gift vouchers for our Ruskin Club courses are available so you can share the joy of nature and craft with family and friends. Please ring the office to order on 01299 488083.

In addition to the Ruskin Club workshops listed below, we are always happy to host private events and workshops, whether it be a corporate team away day, a crafts workshop for a small group of friends, or a bigger woodland experience day. Please contact events@wyreclt.org.uk for more details.
