What to expect
Some of The Wild Hub sessions are best to book, but not essential for every session. When you first attend, the leader will introduce themselves and show you around if you are unfamiliar with the building.
It’s recommended that you bring a yoga mat/cushion and blanket to wellbeing hours and women’s circles – although they do have spare.
You are advised to wear some comfy clothing.
If you are anxious, nervous about attending, or just want to know a bit more then The Wild Hub are happy to have phone chats beforehand/meet outside the venue or whatever will help you.
All venues have free parking locally.

This lead her to create The Wild Hub; a community project based in West Norfolk & Fenland to help tackle isolation and loneliness. The group runs on donations from participants and also funding from Norfolk Community Foundation through the Love Norfolk Fund 2023.
