About this event

  • 4 hours 30 minutes

Here at the RHS our aims are to inspire, inform, involve and improve our communities’ quality of life and our environment through gardening, being in and working in nature.

Through our Wellbeing project we provide non-clinical support for those who want to improve their wellbeing by gardening and connecting with nature. We work with community groups and individuals (via social prescribing) through a person-centred approach.

The taster session is an opportunity for link workers & professionals such as Community Connectors, health care providers and green space workers who want to set up their own project or are interested in referring, to experience a wellbeing session first-hand with Therapeutic Gardener, Ozichi Brewster. The session is an opportunity to learn more about how green social prescribing/wellbeing sessions are set up and facilitated at Bridgewater.
