Summer season of fun family crafts workshops have kicked off at Dean Heritage Centre. They're open to all. If your children get free school meals you can apply for one of our fully-funded family places - free entry, free workshops, and free lunch - for children and parents/carers. Thanks to the support of the National Lottery Heritage Fund, FVAF, Gloucestershire County Council and University of Gloucestershire, with the support of Dean Heritage Centre we're putting on a series of crafting activities inspired by poems in the new Forest of Dean Writers Collection. Today's (1st August) was themed around the brilliant dialect poem 'Varest Ship' [Forest sheep] by Keith Morgan. We've two more (specific to the collection) coming up: Thursdays 8th and 22nd August. Free places are limited, so to find out how to apply and book, go to Forest Voluntary Action Forum's booking page: here: https://forestofdeandistrict.coordinate.cloud/project/57012
