Downend Flower Arranging Club
Chairperson: Emma Bayley
Venue: Emersons Green Village Hall, Emerson Way, Emersons Green, BRISTOL BS16 7AP
Meetings: Wednesdays at 7.30 pm
Club Information:
We are a friendly group, varying ages and abilities, who all love flowers. New members receive a helpful information pack.
We meet on 1st and 3rd Wednesdays each month (September - June).
Everyone helps to set up, after a tutorial session by our NAFAS trained tutor, we try to replicate the design. We promote eco ideas and recycling where possible. Tutorial information is sent out prior to the session.
As well as 2 public demonstrations per year we do 2 public workshops (spring and autumn).
There are various volunteering roles at local flower shows, some of us also do monthly workshops at a care home, assisting residents to create arrangements, it's great fun and very appreciated by the residents - no experience required.
At our June AGM, we share a buffet and just for fun have a competition for members.
