Roots to Wellbeing

Roots to Wellbeing is a friendly and relaxed group offering outdoor nature connection activities in local parks. We run both 18-week programmes and shorter 4-week courses (see below for details).

Each week we guide participants to foster a deeper relationship with nature. The sessions aim to support good mental health and wellbeing, lift the mood and calm the mind as well as meeting other like-minded people.

Activities include:

• Walks
• Reflection
• Mindfulness exercises
• Sensory activities
• Gardening activities e.g. cutting, clearing, planting, pruning and weeding
• Simple nature-based creative and craft activities

The sessions are open to anyone over 18 (and people who support them) who is interested in spending time in nature in a group setting to support their wellbeing.

This is a safe and welcoming space for all. We appreciate that it can take time to feel confident and comfortable in a group and we understand that joining a new group can be anxiety-provoking. We do everything we can to ensure that new participants feel as comfortable as possible in our sessions.
