Celebrating the opening of Abenhall Manor
Opening soon.
Just up the road from ASHA, the Forest Arts and Wellness Centre – to give it its full name – can accommodate 24 overnight guests, has a beautiful studio space similar in size to the Pavilion at the ASHA and is surrounded by 54 acres of Gloucestershire countryside.
Part funded by the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development, the Centre has been purpose-built with careful consideration to fit in with its surroundings.
“The ASHA Centre gave vibrancy and hope to every fibre of my body. It allowed me to be the change I wanted to see in the world.”
