About the event

Studies have shown that spending as little as 20-minutes a day with nature can significantly improve our mood and life satisfaction, restore our attentional capacity and reduce stress levels and anxiety.

However, it’s not just about the duration, but how we engage with nature. Using our senses to appreciate and notice our surroundings allows us to feel connected and present.

In this session we will take time to explore Bartonsham Meadows nature reserve at our own pace and tune into nature and autumn through the senses. We'll be using words and drawings to think about our relationship with nature and what it means to us. 

This is the perfect opportunity to start your week feeling refreshed and recharged, all thanks to nature.  

Tickets are free but booking is essential. 

Everyone is welcome to participate, however comfortable you are with the outdoors – we will not be getting dirty, and you won’t have to do things you are not comfortable with. 

Please bring a journal / notebook with you if you have one.
