Christmas wreath workshops to raise funds for Shropshire charity

A festive wreath-making workshop at Fordhall Organic Farm near Market Drayton will raise money for a charity supporting communities across Shropshire and Telford.

Organised by 4 All Foundation, the event will take place on Sunday, December 6, with two sessions available, from 10am to noon and 1pm to 3pm.

Participants will be provided with foliage gathered from the Shropshire countryside and can also bring their own foraged materials to incorporate into their wreaths. They are asked to bring an apron and secateurs if they have them.

Tea, coffee and homemade mince pies will be available during the workshops, which will be held in the farm’s Straw Lodge.

Gemma Hargreaves, corporate and events engagement officer at 4 All Foundation, said: “We are really excited to be running these workshops and can’t wait to see the creations made on the day – which, of course, participants will be able to take home with them and proudly display over the Christmas period.”

She added that the charity was delighted to be working with Fordhall Organic Farm, describing it as a special venue for the festive event.

The 4 All Foundation runs community programmes across Shropshire, Telford and Wrekin and surrounding areas, including youth clubs, school holiday activities, wellbeing groups and health initiatives. Its work focuses on community engagement, sport, health and wellbeing, education and employability.

Tickets cost £40 per person, plus a booking fee, with proceeds going towards the charity’s community programmes. They are available through Eventbrite.
