We agree with @KensingtonRoyal! Connecting with nature is so important & evidence shows spending quality time outdoors benefits children’s development from a young age. Natural Thinkers is a programme that helps more children connect with nature. For more: buff.ly/B75XzNX
SPRING. This year’s Mental Health Awareness Week, we are celebrating humanity’s longstanding connection to nature, and its capacity to inspire us and help us to heal and grow in mind, body and spirit. As we confront the challenges of an increasingly complex and digital world, the importance of the connection between humanity and nature takes on even more significance. The Mother Nature series is a reminder and reflection of the beauty and complexity of the human experience. It is a tribute to the lessons we can learn from nature, helping us to foster our own growth, strengthen our bonds with the world around us and each other. C
