Join Us for the second Walk of "Roots & Routes" series

"Roots & Routes" is funded by the King Charles III Charitable Fund (KCCF).

This project aims to create meaningful connections between Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) communities and the natural world, using guided walks as a platform for education, dialogue and cultural exchange.

This guided experience is focused on connecting with nature and learning how we can care for the UK’s wildlife while enjoying the outdoors. Along the way, we’ll discuss simple yet impactful actions to support local species, nurture our green spaces and cultivate a deeper appreciation for the natural world.

We invite you to come along, be inspired and join us in building a more environmentally focused future.
