Nature in Mind

Nature in Mind is funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund. The service supports people with mental health issues, and promotes wellbeing and recovery through engagement with nature based activities in Nottinghamshire and beyond.

It also helps people to overcome barriers that have a negative impact on their lives including low confidence, social isolation or health problems.

Evidence shows that spending time in a natural environment can:

• Reduce stress and anxiety
• Help reduce the need for medication
• Reduce levels of depression
• Help overcome isolation and social exclusion
• Improve physical health
• Improve mood and self esteem.

Nature in Mind provides varied opportunities and activities related to nature in small, supportive groups.
