“This group has been life-changing for me” I feel the need to write a review for the Wellness Walks that I’ve been going to run by Karl. I joined his group last August after being my husbands sole carer 24/7, for many years until he sadly died last June. By the time he passed away, I […]

“a lovely feeling of community” Hi, I’d like to tell you how beneficial this group has been for my mental and physical health. When I moved back to the Uk from France 18 months ago I didn’t know anyone in my local area (Salford) and really missed the wide open spaces of rural France. I felt […]

“An excellent course and provider. Very knowledgeable. Boosted my confidence and ability to engage in the wellbeing activities offered by our natural countryside environment. I’d highly recommend this course and I was able to put it into practice the very next day. I now have a compass and paper map! With many thanks”
