Connected by Nature offers a varied programme of outdoor and nature-based activities designed to support wellbeing, build confidence and create opportunities to connect with others in a relaxed, informal setting.
Sessions may include bushcraft and campfire cooking, seasonal foraging walks, nature crafts, wildlife activities, creative workshops and wellbeing sessions. Throughout the year, we also welcome special guests who deliver unique activities and experiences based on the interests of the group.
Activities are shaped by participants, allowing the programme to evolve around the skills, topics and experiences people would like to explore. Whether you prefer to get involved in practical activities, learn something new or simply enjoy spending time in nature, there is no pressure to participate beyond your comfort level.
As sessions take place outdoors in all weathers, so you should wear weather-appropriate clothing. This could include a waterproof coat and trousers, wellies or sturdy shoes, and spare clothes just in case. We do have an indoor space, so don't let the weather put you off!
We understand that attending a new group for the first time can feel overwhelming, particularly for those experiencing anxiety, low confidence, social isolation or other challenges. Connected by Nature is designed to be a welcoming, supportive and inclusive space where participants can engage in a way that feels comfortable for them.
To help reduce barriers to participation, we are happy for attendees to bring a support person, friend, family member or carer with them for as long as they need. There is no expectation to join in every activity, and individuals are encouraged to participate at their own pace and according to their own interests and comfort levels.
