"A WanderWomen Forest Bath & River Swim Day Out"

Peebles

15 May 2025

9am – 4pm

EVENT OVERVIEW

Join us for this female only WanderWomen adventure in Peebles to restore balance amongst the trees, find inner calm swimming in the gorgeous Tweed River, and be at one with our natural environment.

An ideal opportunity for self-care and grounding, spending time with nature and with others, the day’s activities will include forest bathing, silent reflection, a mindful and gentle 5km round walk, nature connection, meditation — and a river swim for the brave!

Hot drinks and snacks are included; after completing the activities we will head to a local cafe for some warm food. Transport to and from Peebles from St Margaret’s House will be provided.

ABOUT Still Caring

As part of its Still Caring programme, Care for Carers runs a free series of events throughout the year, giving carers a short break from their caring roles and the opportunity to enjoy the company of other carers.

During these events we explore the cultural, artistic and natural aspects of life in and around Edinburgh.

Occasionally an event is open to both the carer and the caredfor person to come together; these are always clearly indicated. Minibus transport is usually provided for events further afield. Please note that some events may have limited availability.

Further details on the Still Caring programme can be found here.
