Nature is essential for our mental and physical health, supporting us to feel a sense of purpose and belonging, reducing stress, enhancing recovery and supporting community.
We are a partnership of organisations in the West of England with a shared vision:
- For everyone to have opportunities to engage with nature to stay well and as part of their healthcare, for example through green social prescribing.
- For nature to be part of treatment when we need more specialist health care.
- For nature to be part of everyone’s daily lives and community.
Our directory provides information about projects that support people to connect with nature through activities such as food growing, arts, conservation, walking, swimming and nature-based therapies, all rooted in communities. The directory features activities available in Bath & North East Somerset, Bristol, South Gloucestershire and North Somerset,
Full details of each activity including location, contact details, and how to take part can be found through the directory.
