Wildlife and Wellbeing Community Interest Company

Wildlife and Wellbeing was set up as a Community Interest Company in 2024 in response to the growing climate, biodiversity and human mental health crises. Our aim is to connect people with their local wildlife, for the benefit of their health and wellbeing. Environmental health and wellbeing also benefits from more humans being connected to nature and understanding the impact they as individuals have – both negative and positive – on the natural world.

What we do We run nature connection events in and around Salisbury where people learn about their local wildlife and practice mindfulness techniques. We help people with a common interest to connect, particularly those living with or at risk of loneliness and social isolation. We help people develop or strengthen their relationship with nature and the natural environment where they live.

Who is WaW for? WaW is for anyone who might benefit from being more connected to nature and gaining more control of their health and wellbeing. Which is probably everyone! We are proud to be an inclusive organisation. We welcome all people at our events. We value diversity, and aim to create a community that reflects the breadth of people in our local society, including marginalised people. We work in locations that are accessible and encourage people to arrive by active travel and/or by public transport. We strive to be accessible to all.
