About the event

As part of Friends of the Meads  2024 events programme, spend a few hours meandering around the wonderful Meads Eco-Park in Bridgwater with Mark Ward from Somerset Wildlife Trust’s Somerset’s Wilder Coast project.

He will guide you through a series of gentle and mindful Nature Connections activities based on the " The Work that Reconnects - Active Hope" process. This is a long established and internationally recognised approach to exploring how we can be grateful to nature and humanity’s place in it whilst honouring the pain many of us are feeling around the negative impacts our species is causing to our planet. You will be invited individually and as a small group to engage with some different mindful activities and will go away with some seeds of hope around how we can better do our bit to protect nature, both locally and globally.

Somerset’s Wilder Coast is funded by the Hinkley Community Fund and the Lottery’s Climate Action Fund.

This event will be run again on 29th May - 13.0pm to 4.30pm.
