Bringing Light to Dark Days

Space is available on this event

Join us to learn about making some natural self care products, candles, bath bombs and infused herbal oils and a soothing herbal balm. 

All made with simple ingredients and aromatherapeutic grade essential oils. 

Fiona runs Trust Links ECO Days workshops in Southend, all the workshops are based on learning sustainable skills for a better world. 

During the weekend there will be sessions including making candles from soya wax and essential oils and bath bombs and herbal balms.

This is a weekend to banish the dark days of January with time spent in community learning a new skill. There will of course be plenty of time to relax, enjoy the surroundings, help with chores and join in with Chapel services at the beautiful Chapel of St Peter-on-the-wall.
