Nature Trail (Car park opening hours)
Monday – Sunday: 9am – 5pm
The Nature Trail is open to use during daylight hours. To ensure that we are able to keep this space open to the public we ask that you respect the wildlife living there, only walk on the outlined areas and do not enter private property and do not leave any litter. No fires are permitted on the land at any time.
The Fold is located in Bransford, 3 miles outside of Worcester on the A4103 Hereford Road, it is also 3 miles from Malvern. We welcome walkers, cyclists, public transport users and car drivers at the Fold. We have a small car park in the front, and to the rear parking for up to 200 cars.

The majority of our classes and workshops are run by external teachers who hire the space from The Fold. Therefore bookings need to be made directly with the teacher/leader, Details of how to book onto each event are available on the event’s page on our calendar.
Tickets for events run directly by The Fold are available through this website.
Yes! We have multiple spaces available that are suitable for a variety of events. We are always excited for more people to join our community and inspirational activities to take place here.
You can hire our event spaces for small, self-catered parties. However we do not currently have the capacity to hold large weddings or catered events at The Fold.
We do not currently have studio spaces available to rent. If you are an artisan interested in holding workshops at The Fold or would like to be put on a waiting list for a studio space, please email operations@thefold.org.uk to express your interest.
We are always on the lookout for potential new members of our centre. Our therapists work on a self-employed basis contracted to rent the rooms for an agreed number of hours per month. We run the centre on a community ethos where we have regular meetings and make decisions together as a team.
We require all our professional therapists to be qualified level 4 and above. As The Fold is in a semi-rural location and so it helps if therapists have 2 years of professional practice experience in their own business so they are able to bring clients with them to the Therapy Centre.
If you are interested in joining the team please contact Emma Scott on therapycentre@thefold.org.uk
Appointments and enquiries need to be made directly with the therapists themselves.
