This event will showcase what Nature Buddies has achieved so far, highlighting the positive impact of connecting people to nature for wellbeing through supportive, community led approaches. It will provide the opportunity to share learning and explore how the scheme can continue to grow and develop in the future.
The Conference will include short talks, an interactive workshop and taster activity sessions – offering practical insight into how Nature Buddies works. Attendees will have the chance to meet some of our current Nature Buddy volunteers and host organisations, hear real life experiences and learn how nature based activities can support wellbeing.

• Healthcare professionals and social prescribers wanting to learn more about the scheme, the health and wellbeing benefits of nature and the referral process
• Existing Nature Buddies host organisations looking to share experiences and help shape our future plans
• Nature and heritage based organisations and community groups keen to set up their own Nature Buddy schemes
