Store Events

We're constantly looking for an excuse to get out and about into Northumberland! You too huh? We run courses, events and lectures throughout the year to fulfil our cravings for adventure and inspiration, and meet a few new people whilst we're at it. If that sounds like it might be your jam, phone the store or email for more information and bookings.
