We help you spend time connecting with nature in fun and creative ways, which awaken both your senses and your curiosity to help you to nurture and care for yourself. Most of these activities take place entirely outside, surrounded by nature’s beauty.
We work across Nottinghamshire, Linconshire and Leicester. Get in touch if you are interested in us working with you at a local venue.
Create with Nature
Connecting with nature, exercise and creativity are powerful tonics for our health and wellbeing. We bring all these elements together in revitalising monthly creative nature walks.
We’ll take a walk around the beautiful green local spaces and through noticing the colours, details and delights that we might otherwise miss, we develop a deeper connection with and appreciation of nature. Each session will take a different approach sculpting, drawing, printing and painting with the natural materials we’ve gathered along our walk.

Nature Care
Nature Care is a self-care programme which uses the restorative powers of nature to benefit our minds and bodies. It is important for our wellbeing that we are not always ‘doing’ in nature and we give ourselves time to ‘be’ in nature.
It involves weekly sessions in a small supportive group where you can connect with nature through therapeutic nature-based activities, simple mindfulness techniques and personal resilience skills.
This course is suitable for anyone who feels they may benefit from our nature-based approach to mental health resilience. We particularly welcome anyone who is experiencing feelings of low mood, anxiety, mild depression or loneliness to join our course.
