As part of the seminar "Target group oriented interpreting in the field of scientific guided tours", two mushroom tours took place in Hamburg's Volkspark on 10 and 11 October, led by trained mushroom coaches. The senior group of the Hamburg Deaf Association and a class of the Elbschule had the opportunity to learn the basics of mushroom picking and identification.

The tours were interpreted by IDGS students under the guidance of Andrea Schaffers.

Cookie and coffee breaks as well as the huge mushroom harvest ensured a good mood and a cheerful get-together.

 We are looking forward to future events of this kind and would like to thank all those who actively supported us in the preparation and execution of the guided tours.
