Wild About Nature is a project to involve our local community in caring for nature and the environment where we live.The project will give us regular contact with nature, right on our doorsteps, to engender a sense of delight and responsibility for the natural world, foster an understanding of key issues, and develop important skills related to caring for the environment.The project will bring us together to grow and garden sustainably, maintain and develop areas for wildlife, and learn about beekeeping.

By participating, we can improve our physical and mental health and wellbeing, learn skills and gain confidence, and become an active part of our community.

Together we will improve local biodiversity by investigating what we have, researching what we could do improve it, and taking positive action – building a green wave from our community garden outwards into our gardens and community green spaces and onto our doorsteps and balconies!

ActivLives would like to thank National Lottery players for making this work possible.
