My Severn mindful photography

Slow down, stay calm and be connected… Unlocking the Severn invites you to explore the River Severn in a creative and mindful way.

Spring 2022 workshops and courses

 

Following the success of our My Severn photography courses during lockdown in 2020, Unlocking the Severn are back in collaboration with Look Again to run a series of workshops and courses this spring. These free sessions are designed to encourage people to slow down, connect with nature, and explore the River Severn from different perspectives.

We are running workshops and courses in two locations along the River Severn: Gloucester and Worcester.

– Connect with people from your local community.

– Immerse yourself in the scenery, history and cultural heritage of the River Severn.
