News and Announcements

Storm Update

Following the weekend storms, which forced us to close the site, we’ve assessed the damage in the arboretum and are saddened to confirm that some of our trees have been lost. Clean-up work is now underway to make the area safe, and we are open as normal today, Monday 26th October.

As a charity, this unexpected cost can hit hard. If you’d like to help support the clean-up and replanting of trees, please donate here.https://cafdonate.cafonline.org/19050#!/DonationDetails

Enlightened is back for December 2026!
