Enjoy a fascinating insight into the world of Wedgwood with an experience that combines the history and nostalgia of this famous brand as well as the chance to have some hands on fun at the Wedgwood Visitor Centre. Start with coffee and shortbread on arrival, followed by a self guided tour of the centre where you'll learn all about Josiah Wedgwood and his company, see some rare museum pieces and watch the master potters at work. Next up enjoy a two course lunch (served on Wedgwood china, of course!). Then it's time to get your hands dirty - literally! Helped by a master craftsman you'll throw a pot of your own each. When you've finished, Wedgwood will fire your pots and post them to you at home, so they can take pride of place on your mantelpieces. You'll also receive an exclusive gift (a beautiful bone china hand-painted coaster) from the exclusive range of products at the centre, a privilege card giving you two years' free entry and a 10% discount on entry to nearby Trentham Gardens.

It's your first public act outside of the wedding ceremony, a chance to show the world your new husband or wife and one of the elements of the wedding day remembered most by guests. For years, every time you hear the familiar lyrics to 'your song' you'll be transported back to your wedding day and that special first dance. But while the idea is wonderful, the reality can often be a clumsy start, sudden loss of rhythm and feet drawn like magnets to the top of your better half's! No need to break out in a cold sweat just yet... there is still time to make your first dance one to remember for all the right reasons. With this experience you will enjoy five private dance lessons at London's famous Pineapple Dance Studios with an experienced wedding dance instructor who will choreograph a routine with you to the song of your choice. Your family and friends will be awestruck as you whisk each other around the room and you will have a moment that will last in your memories forever.
You've seen those wildlife documentaries, now visit nature at work for real at Aston Rowant, one of England's most valuable nature reserves. Take a behind-the-scenes look at conservation in action from those in the know, the people who manage and look after this important site. Aston Rowant is a fantastic place to see Red Kites, reintroduced in this country by staff from Natural England. It's also a haven for some of the country's most beautiful birds, mammals, insects and flowers. The enthusiastic staff are all trained to work with children and provide education and activities about the natural world and our place within it. It isn't Africa, nor a zoo, so we can't guarantee any spectacular big game sightings, but we hope you will share our enthusiasm for the little things that form the tapestry of our own special landscape in England. It doesn't have to be big to be beautiful, so take an opportunity to get up close and personal with some small things which come in beautiful packages.

Join a top specialist skills school in London for a day, it's where many artists go to practise. Choose from either circus skills or cowboy skills at Britain's top centre for the circus arts and have fun learning different skills in a supportive environment. This experience gives you the chance to try either cowboy skills (which includes knife-throwing, whip-cracking and lassoing) or circus skills (including tight wire walking, juggling, acrobatics and flying trapeze). Full and constant instruction is included so you're sure to learn some really impressive moves. The Circus Space is a registered charity which works to redefine perceptions of circus and broaden its appeal. It is one of the top three circus schools in Europe and a member of the European Federation of Circus Schools and the UK's Circus Arts Forum.
