Ruskin Mill

There were lots of different stalls at the Hay Festival - Cats' Protection, RSPB, the Woodland Trust giving out saplings, and many more.
Facing the main entrance was a tent for meeting people, but when I went up on Friday there was a man working a pole lathe there, and more people making pottery and pressing leaves into the clay. Some pottery was for sale too.
This turned out to be people from Ruskin Mill in Nailsworth. They are a college for students with learning difficulties, and they seem to do a lot of practical, hands on, activities.
They also seem to put on a lot of music events and exhibitions.
