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.
When: Tue 21 May, 10am-12pm
Where: Walkmill Community Woodland (meet at Moresby Rugby Union Club)
What: We will go for a walk around the woodlands paying attention to the wildflowers and trees we see.
We will then use some pressed flowers & leaves to start creating wildflower/tree identification journals which we can use as a record for all the wildflowers and trees that we find and identify.
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+
