The annual Ashwell at Home village festival returned on Sunday with activities, music and demonstrations for all ages.

The theme was 'A Day of Wellbeing', and visitors took part in workshops including movement, yoga, singing, harp relaxation, drawing, painting and mini fit club, plus free reflexology mini-treatments and the opportunity to join in with Herts Early Dance, Morris dancing and more.
