Our Young People's Programme


Through our Young People’s Programme, we provide fun and interesting Nature Prescriptions to 15 to 17-year-olds, aimed at encouraging engagement with the natural world for the benefits it brings to mental health and wellbeing.  The young people in our programme have an opportunity to access a variety of nature-based activities during their one-to-one Nature Prescription and beyond. Through psychoeducation, experiential activities, and motivational support, they learn new habits that last a lifetime. We recently held our first workshop exclusively for young people, during which the group created this beautiful mandala together.  The workshop feedback was glowing, with one participant saying “young people need this, they just don’t know that they do”.
