We are currently running a 3 and half year project, Natural Connections, that seeks to embed learning in local natural environment in schools, evidencing teachers' perceived benefits across a range of health, social and education outcomes for children and young people. We also have just completed a five year project that looked at wellbeing derived from woodland activities (Good from Woods, in partnership with the Silvanus Trust and woodland organisations). This developed a set of wellbeing indicators from the literature and research conducted by practitioner - researchers.
