The first Exbury Wellness Festival, on 13th-14th June, was a huge success with busy sessions across a wide range of disciplines.
One of the goals of the event was to make the disciplines on offer accessible to people looking to make more time for wellness. The drop-in sessions allowed visitors to gauge which activities were suitable for them and also introduced them to local specialists able to answer questions and offer advice. Many visitors commented how lovely it was to be able to take part in so many different activities.
Exbury’s kokedama workshops were extremely popular as was the Family Wellness Trail that will be reappearing during the summer holidays.
