FURTHER UPDATE: Fortunately enough people have signed up for the weekend, so the retreat WILL take place over the entire weekend, although if you can only make it along on Sunday, that option is also available.
UPDATE: Due to the short notice of this weekend, it has been decided to run just the Sunday session. Cost will be £29 plus £1 tip for the staff.
If you would like to attend, please call Will on 01983 404560 or 07950 216374 asap as desposits are required.
