Growing-up, growing older, retiring, and filling free-time: baby boomers are doing it differently.  Making this, apparently, “The age of not acting your age”.

That's exactly why The Trentham Estate in Stoke-on-Trent is now making a concerted effort to let seniors, in particular, know about all of the benefits of its shops, cafes, gardens and parkland.

And during July and August, Trentham is also offering even more relaxation, along with a sense of wellness, in the great outdoors with the launch of Outdoor Yoga.

Energising yoga sessions will be held in Trentham Gardens each Wednesday morning, offering participants a chance to build strength, stamina and flexibility, whilst cultivating a sense of calm - and beginners are very welcome.

If a gentle stroll and tips on creating your own perfect garden is more your style, Trentham is also launching a new Gardening Club this month.  On one Wednesday a month, visitors will be able to join an expert for an introduction to indoor and outdoor gardening.  Along with a question and answer session, the new club will include a guided tour of the Gardens offering handy tips and tricks along the way.

Both the yoga sessions - which are weather dependent - and the gardening club are included in normal Garden admission.
