What we'll do
Black2Nature is hosting sessions for Visible Minority Ethnic (VME) young people during the winter holidays, offering an opportunity to connect with nature and learn about the outdoors while building mental health resilience. These sessions will run, meeting at St Pauls Learning Centre before embarking on nature excursions. Each session includes lunch and snacks. Schedule: Tues 8th April: 8.30 - 4pm (10-12 yrs) Wed 9th April: 9.30 - 3pm (10-12 yrs) Fri 11th April 9.15 - 4pm (Secondary school age - 11-18 years) Wed 16th April: 9 - 4pm (10-12 yrs) Thurs 17th April: 9 - 4pm (10-12 yrs) Friday 18th April: 9 - 4pm (10-12 yrs) We will run a different morning trip each day followed by a workshop afternoon helping young people take action on environmental issues. The young people will create an environmental social action project, develop skills, and lead their own project. This is run by Blue Influencers Scheme Our program provides a safe space for children to express their feelings, discuss everyday stresses and anxieties, and confront issues like racism. We also teach participants about sustainability and the environment, emphasizing that you can only protect the planet if you love and appreciate it.
About your mentor
Black2Nature
Everyone has a right to nature.
Right now, VME people are excluded from the UK countryside. Most opportunities to access the great outdoors are aimed at affluent white kids. We believe this has to change. Black2Nature fights for equal access to nature for all, a right that we believe is fundamental in the same way we all have the right to access education or health. Everybody should have the benefit of being able to go out into green or natural spaces, not just for their enjoyment but also for their mental, physical and social wellbeing. Vulnerable and disadvantaged minority ethnic children and teenagers are particularly at risk of entering foster care, prison or the mental health system. They are twice as likely as their White counterparts to be diagnosed with a mental illness through contact with the criminal justice system rather than it being picked up by their school, GP or Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS). Our vision for Black2Nature is that our early intervention will get VME children, teens and families out into nature on a regular basis, increasing their resilience to physical and mental illness. We run many day events, camps for younger children and teens, built around building confidence, making friends, connecting with nature and having fun! Each camp is different. We’ve done all sorts of activities on our adventures, including bird-ringing, hiking, swimming, birdwatching, climbing, abseiling, archery, bushcraft, visiting Zoo, WWT Slimbridge and orienteering.

Cancellation Policy
Free bookings do not require refunds but as places are limited, please cancel if you cannot attend so that your place can be offered to someone else.

My experience is an educational activity and the 14-day cooling-off period under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 therefore applies. After the 14 day period my standard policy will apply.
