Innovating a nature-based model of mental health intervention


Dose of Nature is a psychologist-led charity which helps people achieve significant improvements in their mental health by connecting with nature. 


Our work is based on over 40 years of academic research, which proves overwhelmingly the hugely powerful psychological and physiological benefits of being in nature. 


Our Dose of Nature Prescriptions and wellbeing workshops take place predominately in south-west London and in Guildford, Surrey, but if you are interested in any part of our work, please email info@doseofnature.org.
