Transport: Please let us know about transport needs as we will be able to transport to and from Heuston Station on the day.
In-person Event details: The group will be guided on a gentle forest walk using a series of research-based nature engagement invitations to explore their connection to nature to experience the many health & wellbeing benefits.
We hope the groups will leave the events ready to embrace the present season with a renewed sense of community, a strong understanding of how they personally connect with nature and with valuable tools to use as they slowly move through into the present season.
