Time in natures has been shown to reduce stress, enhance wellbeing, Our Woodland Wellbeing programme applies the principles of Forest School and the NHS' Five Ways to Wellbeing' (Be Active, Notice, Connect, Keep learning, Give back). Each group reflects the needs, aspirations and interests of those involved
Activities may include a walk in the woods, campfire cooking , woodcrafts and nature connection activities. Always including a cup of tea and the opportunity to do as much or as little as feels right.
