What an incredible experience this morning was,
10 lads up Hamsterley Forest - Forestry England wild swim and sauna!🔥

There is no better rush than jumping into cold water then getting into a sauna and that’s a fact!
Absolutely incredible morning lads, couldn’t recommend it enough👏

Have a look at some of the stuff The Conscious Self has to offer, amazing alternative to our busy lives 🤲

As you may of seen we are hosting a memorial football game/after due on the 27th of this month for our friend Luke Barron who we sadly lost a year ago 💔

Due to some circumstances we are left without a singer which were performing at 6pm on the night at Brandon cricket club, if anyone can help us or know of someone please comment or message 🙏

We are also having a raffle on the night and have already been generously donated some brilliant prizes, if anyone would be so kind to donate any more we would deeply appreciate this🫶

❤️ LUKE BARRON MEMORIAL WALK UPDATE ❤️

(Same date, same time)

After walking one of the mountains in the same area yesterday, we've decided to change the route. The original route was due to be a lot more challenging than the one we completed, and while that's fine for some of us younger lads, it wouldn't be ideal for a large group with mixed abilities.

The walk will now be the Aira force and Gawbarrow circular , allowing more people to come together and take part in remembering Luke.

📍 Aira Force Main Car Park
📅 Saturday 20th June
🕘 9:00am

I've done this walk before with young kids, and it's around 5 miles (roughly 3 hours). We want this day to be relaxed and for everyone to complete the walk together.

The route is absolutely beautiful, with ancient woodland, red squirrels, waterfalls, old stone bridges, picnic areas and stunning views over Ullswater. It finishes by lake Ulswater, where anyone who wants to can take a dip and cool off after the walk.

This day is all about celebrating Luke's life and bringing people together, and we feel this route is much better suited to that.

Bring plenty of picnic food and we'll all sit together afterwards, share stories, reflect on Luke's life and make it a special day of remembrance.
