## What to Expect
##### It’s okay to talk and it’s okay to be quiet too
We understand that you may prefer to ease into conversation gradually, or that some days you might like to explore quietly and take in the beauty of these wonderful gardens whilst simply being in the company of others. We welcome both quietude and chatter.
##### You can go at your own pace
We'll be walking at a leisurely pace with opportunity to pause along the way, enjoy the scenery, or engage in some mindful photography. Our intention is to help you connect with one-another so that you can nurture your sense of belonging within our community, but there’s absolutely no pressure. You’re invited to do what feels right for you.
##### A Guided Tour
We'll be welcomed by small team of National Trust Volunteers who will guide us through the gardens. They'll be on hand to answer any questions you have, and share their expert knowledge about the plants, environment, and history of Glendurgan.
##### A relaxed, calming environment
Glendurgan Gardens is a National Trust property. We'll have beautiful groves and orchards to explore - and if you're up for an adventure, you could even have a go at the cherry laurel maze! For those that would like to join us for a drink or a bite to eat on the day, there is a tea room that some of us will be visiting at the end of the guided tour. There's also a little bookshop!
##### A community of understanding
Our gentle-natured team and your fellow quieteers attending are likely to share similar feelings and experiences with you. So here you can connect with people who truly get you - and feel part of a supportive, welcoming community together.
No dogs allowed.
