About

Connecting with the natural environment can offer many benefits to mental health in ways that are often understated and overlooked.

Our approach focuses on utilising the existing environment in a way that encourages and supports a natural therapeutic process, whilst also maintaining the space for self-reflection.

We make connection to the natural environment central to our approach. We blend together the natural positive effects of being outdoors, with opportunities that encourage a sense of mindfulness. We are based in and operate in The Wye Valley and surrounding areas.

Every approach is unique and is designed to adapt over time to the needs of the individual or group.
