Community Group Sessions
Wildlife and Wellbeing run sessions tailored to meet the needs of groups in and around Salisbury. We create and deliver focused projects and bespoke sessions for community, vulnerable and marginalised groups.
Since we started working in Salisbury in 2024 we have worked with: Salisbury Shopmobility, group struggling with addiction, LGBT+ group, parent and toddler group, youth groups and more…
We help people learn more about nature on their doorstep. We do this in a variety of ways from children’s activity days to guided walks, bushcraft activities to nature-based meditation.
Our sessions teach participants new skills, which can include mindfulness, ecological understanding, bushcraft and nature-based crafts. Sessions are always led by our knowledgeable and experienced facilitators – see below.
Cost
Sessions cost from £50 per hour. We have some funding available to offer discounted or free sessions to groups. Get in touch to find out more.
