This Thursday, 15th October | 10:30am to 1:30pm
Nature Nurtures: A Five Senses Wellbeing Workshop

As part of our recognition of World Mental Health Day, we'll be exploring how nature can support our wellbeing through our five senses. Together we'll create beautiful autumn lanterns to take home, helping to bring light and warmth to the darker days ahead, as well as enjoying a range of mindful, sensory activities designed to boost positive mental health.

🌿 Using our five senses to promote wellbeing, mindfulness and connection with the natural world.

If you would benefit from being part of a welcoming, supportive, nature-based group where you can connect with others, learn new skills and spend time outdoors, we'd love to hear from you.

🌿 Gardening Session
Join us as we collect autumn leaves from Thornton Park to add to our vegetable beds. Combined with cardboard and other compostable materials, the leaves will help enrich the soil and improve its structure as they naturally break down over time. It's a great way to make use of seasonal resources while preparing the allotment for future growing.

🌿🌢️ What a fabulous day of flavours!

Today we had great fun infusing oils using our very own chillies and herbs. We also made three delicious herbal teas using fresh foliage from our own tea garden. πŸƒπŸ«–

And, of course, no tea tasting would be complete without homemade scones! πŸ«–πŸ§

A wonderful day of growing, creating, tasting and sharing β€” all made with ingredients from our own garden. πŸ’š

Today we’ve been getting creative and helping our local wildlife! We built a bug hotel (we still need to add a few more things to it!), made bug teepees, created bird cakes and bird feeders, and planted onions and bulbs. πŸͺ΄πŸŒ·

It was a fantastic hands-on day learning about how we can make our outdoor space a welcoming place for bugs, birds and other wildlife. 🐝🐦🌱

We can’t wait to see what visitors we attract! πŸ’š.
