Wild Ways Well Weekends
New Year, New You?
Wild Ways Well Weekends is back for the New Year, this could be the perfect time to join us, try something new, reconnect with nature and start 2019 on a great footing, exploring an amazing nature reserve.
We’ll go for a walk around the ancient woodland of Cumbernauld Glen, looking at how the wildlife is coping with winter – and maybe even seeing and hearing the first sounds of Spring!
After the walk we’ll head to a clearing where we’ll make hot drinks, toast some chestnuts and make some cakes over the fire.
We can then spend some time around the fire having a go at a quick and easy art activity or learn how to do some easy citizen science surveys.
This is your chance to explore a beautiful woodland, in company with like-minded people; slow down, relax and de-stress; enjoy being amongst nature and learn a bit about the wildlife that shares our town with us.
Wild Ways Well is designed to help everyone discover the proven benefits of nature for their wellbeing.
We use the internationally recognised Five Ways Well framework for positive mental health and adapt it to a natural, outdoor environment.
We’ll be out for about 3 hours in total, all safety equipment, teas/coffee etc. will be provided.
Please dress for the weather and wear sensible footwear that you don’t mind potentially getting a bit dirty!
These activities are FREE but booking is essential. No experience of the outdoors/nature is necessary. Participants should be 18+ (or younger if accompanied by an adult) and have a basic level of fitness, suitable for a short walk and being on our feet for most of the session.
Please contact Paul at pbarclay@scottishwildlifetrust.org.uk to book.
