Woodland Wellbeing

Date Posted: 11 Aug 2016

A  fundamental part of the ethos of the charity has been to both apply and develop best practice in the delivery of the benefits of the being in the natural environment. We apply the principles of Forest School to deliver successful projects tailored to the needs of diverse groups tackling isolation, developing confidence and more widely improving quality of life. We have worked with adults with learning disabilities for 5 years and are currently working with people with mental health needs and also those with dementia.

Our work is delivered by our skilled Associates: Nicola Ramsden and Rachel Tomlinson.  We can offer 6, 8, 12 & 16 week programmes and ‘taster days’. Costs range between £4,000 to £15,000 depending on the length of the programme and needs of the group.
