Our impact
Dose of Nature
Dose of Nature supports people to improve their mental health through nature based social prescribing.
What it does
Dose of Nature helps young people improve their mental health by connecting with the natural world. Participants take part in outdoor sessions – ‘Nature Prescriptions’ – led by trained volunteers, where they learn about nature’s restorative benefits and build lasting habits of being outdoors.
What we fund
Our funding supports Nature Prescriptions for young people, including free weekly nature based group activities, and research into the effectiveness of this approach.
I am interested in how nature itself can be used to help people get better, not just as a place to be in while you do other things because it feels nice.
