Car Parks and getting here

For all of you who are travelling to Haslemere for Nurtured Family Nurtured Earth, here is a link to a map showing the way from Weyhill, right next to Haslemere where there is more parking than in the town centre. It is a 15-20 minute walk in to the museum from there.... also on the map is the train station, so you can see the short route in to town from there too :-)


There are 3 car parks in the main town which are a little closer ~ also on the map ~ but just wanted to give you a few options as it may well be busy.

Safe a peaceful journeys everyone.


Looking forward to seeing you all next weekend x 

To all of you who have registered for Nurtured Family Nurtured Earth, a huge Thank You!

I have sent out an email with a few important details to you all ~  here are some of the main points, just in case for some reason you haven't received it;

Please bring a picnic lunch and come hang out in the garden with us. We are running a small kitchen on site with drinks, fruit and home made light snacks & refreshments for sale but we are not selling lunches this year, so please come prepared. There is a supermarket just minutes from the museum though if you don't manage to grab your lunch before you leave!

We hope you will find plenty to amuse yourself with; there are many Children's Activities, a Healing Tipi, Tai Chi and a Herb Walk running alongside the main talks all day, culminating with a Community Drumming Circle (please bring along a djembe or percussion instrument if you wish) to end the day at 4 pm which we hope you will all enjoy. Please have a look through the schedule to make sure that you know whats happening & when.

Please buy a raffle ticket (or 10!) on the day ~ The raffle is looking amazing, with more donated gifts coming in all the time, I will update the blog soon with a complete up to date list. There will be many opportunities to purchase tickets for the raffle so please take them up. Particular highlights are a Beautiful Original Watercolour by the inspirational artist Jaine Rose & copies of Veronika Robinsons books, The Drinks are On Me, The Birthkeepers, Life Without School and  (hopefully!) her newest offering The Mystic Cookfire.

Please do have a great time! and sign our guest book, which will be on The Red Thread's table in the market room. Let us know what you have liked and what you would like different next time :- )


Here is a link to directions to the museum

http://www.haslemeremuseum.co.uk/visit.htm

Please be aware that there is no parking at the museum ~ there are a few car parks in town, but we recommend coming by train into Haslemere as there is a good service on the Waterloo/ Portsmouth line. It is just a 15 minute walk from the station to the museum or a very quick taxi ride, thus avoiding having to park in town.

We have a programme of activities running for your children to join in with if they wish.
It is really important for everyones happiness and safety, that children should be accompanied by an adult at all times. Our numbers do not allow for Creche facilities and so there must be a responsible adult with your children at all times whilst on the museum grounds.

So looking forward to spending time with you all in 2 weeks!

Thank you once again to everyone who is working so hard to bring this day into being; for us it is much like a community labour and birth (only with more emails...!) and I am so so grateful to all of you who are working so hard for us, mopping brows and getting ready to catch, and most importantly to ENJOY, Nurtured Family Nurtured Earth as it unfolds into being on June 4th.
