What we'll do
In this workshop, we'll begin by looking at the evolution of hunting projectiles throughout history. Participants will make their own Dutch Arrow and then learn how to throw them, all within the context of doing this with groups of young people. All materials and equipment will be provided, but please bring £2 to cover the cost of your Dutch arrow. In this workshop you'll learn how to throw a Dutch arrow and then we'll have a go- don't worry if you have any shoulder injuries etc - this bit isn't mandatory!

Cancellation Policy
Free bookings do not require refunds but as places are limited, please cancel if you cannot attend so that your place can be offered to someone else.

My experience consists of a leisure activity, on a specific date(s), and therefore the 14-day ‘cooling off period’ under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 does not apply.
