Sunshine for our Summer Celebration

We were delighted to spend a sunny Saturday celebrating summer with our Dose of Nature family.  The image above is the beautiful artwork that our very own Hannah painted for our invitations to set the scene for a special day!


The day started with breakfast at Pensford Field, before many set out to walk a quarter or half marathon route around the borough, returning for refreshments, a barbecue and general merriment in the afternoon.  We were treated to a wonderful array of delicious homemade salads and deserts that filled our 'bring and share' buffet tables. 


Our ever popular arts tent, showcasing some Dose of Nature creations had a steady flow of visitors throughout the day, and a paddling pool proved to be as popular as the games tent for the young and the young at heart as the sun shone! Many were particularly grateful for the cool shade of the trees as they gathered under the canopy to enjoy each other's company. 


Our heartfelt thanks go to all those who raised sponsorship for their walk, those who brought contributions for the buffet, and especially to everyone who came along to spend time with us on the day!
