Come on a story walk in the park!

Why not celebrate National Storytelling Week this year with a Story Walk through West Bank Park in York? Dress up warm and wander with us round this beautiful park (see photos), listening to spellbinding stories.

The walk, which takes place from 2-4 pm on Saturday 2 February, is being organised by the Friends of West Bank Park. I am proud to be one of the invited storytellers.

At the end of the walk there will be a steaming mug of hot chocolate and delicious biscuits in the park’s cafe.

It only costs £1.50 to join in (refreshments included). All ages are welcome, from babies to centenarians – there will be something for everyone!

Book your place by phoning 612418, or just turn up at 2pm at the ‘Break in the Park’ cafe.

See you there!
