As part of #nationalsocialprescribingday The Wildlife Trusts along with NHS are asking for views about how our health can benefit through nature. This is part of a consultation that is currently being undertaken to shape the next 10 years of our NHS. 👉wildlifetrusts.org/give-nature-pl…

Next year we'll have been connecting people with nature for their mental health for 10 years! It's time we had a glow up - we've been calling ourselves Nature and Wellbeing for a while internally, so it's time to embrace our role as a core part of Lancashire Wildlife Trust
