IOU Active Hub — Nutclough Woods Sound Walks - For Adults

Join us for a guided walk through Nutclough Woods led by Jane from Sowerby Bridge Walkers.

Along the route, you’ll encounter artist Brian Acton’s Flock speaker installation — an immersive woodland soundscape designed to encourage deep listening and closer attention to the natural environment.

Slow down, listen carefully, and experience Nutclough Woods in a completely new way.

About the Event

• Workshop for 18+ .  The Family Walk will run at 12pm
• Due to the nature of the pathways in the wood we regret this walk is not suitable for wheelchairs or mobility scooters
• No Dogs 

This FREE workshop is part of  IOU50 Exhibition & Hostel Open Day
