What's on in Arboretum

Worcestershire, England

Arboretum sits quietly in Worcestershire, a spot where the trees do most of the talking and we just listen for what's on next. The Birmingham Catholic Youth Service has been hosting community gatherings for years, proving that good company doesn't need a stadium to feel special. Pub nights and local markets pop up through the seasons without any fuss or fanfare. Near Here keeps our eye on what is going on so you don't have to hunt down flyers in the rain.

An introduction to neurogenic yoga with Freya Nettelsmith

Awakening the tremor: An introduction to neurogenic yoga with certified provider Freya Nettelsmith These two-hour workshops offer an introduction to neurogenic yoga, an approach that uses yoga postures, movement, and breath to prepare the body to come back into relationship with its natural tremor mechanism. This neurogenic process (the same process we are working with in TRE) helps release deep tension, calm the nervous system, and restore balance. By reconnecting with the body’s innate wisdom, we remember what it means to return to ease, safety, and wholeness. 14th Dec 2025, 22nd Feb 2026, 12th April 2026 Ticket price: £35 per session, some bursary places available, please ask me Bookings: freyanettelsmith.co.uk

The Prayer Gathering

This is an opportunity for us to gather together to meet with our God in unhurried time. We want to spend time honouring him and declaring his praises as well as responding to him as a people. Prayer is friendship with God and is our greatest privilege. Let's deepen our friendship with God and seek his will for ourselves, the church and our city. Churches across the country are seeing that God is on the move. Let us join in with him and what he is doing.

Yang to Yin- Sunday Sanctuary Evening Reset

Exhale the week that’s been, and soften into the one ahead. This Sunday evening Yang to Yin class is a steady, nourishing practice designed to help you unwind, reset, and reconnect with yourself. We begin with an uplifting, flowing Yang sequence to gently energise the body, release held tension, and clear mental noise. From there, the pace slows as we transition into deep Yin postures, allowing the nervous system to settle and the body to soften. Expect mindful movement, grounded breathwork, and time to pause – supporting both physical release and a sense of emotional and mental ease. This is a space to let go of effort, drop out of the busy mind, and create space for what’s next. Suitable for all levels, this class isn’t about pushing or perfecting poses. You’re invited to move in a way that feels supportive, listening to your body and meeting yourself exactly where you are. Sundays | 6:30–7:30pm The natural therapy centre All levels welcome – come as you are Mats and props are provided, though you’re very welcome to bring your own if you prefer. £12 Book HERE.
