Get Involved in Our Christmas Advent Walk Mon, 2023-10-23 13:26

Let's add a touch of enchantment to the forest by painting our own elf doors. Get your creative spirit ready and bring some extra magic to this festive season.  We have 24 numbered elf doors that need to be painted so that we can put them up in the Pinewoods for the advent walk.

We'll provide the base doors (with thanks to Harlow Hill Men in Sheds) and we will collect if needed. You bring the imagination! Let's make this woodland adventure truly special. Get painting!
