Spending time outdoors and helping to nurture and conserve nature can have many benefits, including helping to reduce stress and anxiety, improving physical health, reducing loneliness and allowing people to feel connected to nature.

As part of the Wilder Walkmill project we are encouraging people to spend some time outside in the woodland with us. We will be running regular Wellbeing in Nature sessions throughout the year where we will be doing a variety of activities including seed harvesting and planting, fire lighting, cooking, woodwork and arts & crafts, to name just a few.

When: Wed 14 January, 1pm-3pm

Where: Walkmill Community Woodland (meet at Moresby Rugby Union Club)

What: Join us for an adventure into the woodlands where we will learn how to use a flint and steel to start a campfire. We will also make campfire bread dough and cook it on a stick over our campfire.

Research shows that just being in nature for just 2 hours per week can have a significant benefit to our health.

Who: Suitable for all abilities, no experience is necessary and we will provide all the tools and materials.

Notes: Please ensure you wear clothing and footwear suitable for the weather and for an outdoor setting. Sturdy footwear is advised. Participants must be 18+
