Wellbeing
“Nature is not a place to visit. It is home.”
- Mary Synder
Wellbeing and sustainability are deeply interconnected, and they reinforce each other positively.
Wellbeing is the foundation from which everything else is built upon -including sustainability action.
We know that spending time in nature positively impacts our wellbeing.
We run a host of nature connection events under our Wellbeing pillar, some for all ages, and some specifically for young people.
Wellbeing Workshops, Programs & Camps
We are engaged by Councils, Schools, Corporates or Community Groups to deliver wellbeing workshops, programs and camps.
