Peoples park for nature

FREE Wild Advice and Nature Boosters

The People’s Park for Nature is an initiative to support and expand a network of green and blue spaces across the Lower Ouse Valley to connect people, share land and restore the wild.

It’s offering two brilliant freebies to anyone who signs its People’s Park for Nature Charter.

The charter represents a commitment to principles that foster harmony between people and nature. Signatories gain equal voting rights to shape the future of the People’s Park. Anyone can sign, including individuals, businesses, charities, and landowners (large or small).

Here’s what you can get in returning for signing:

1 FREE Wild Advice in the Lower Ouse Valley

If you live or work in the Lower Ouse Valley, there’s a chance this year to spend some time with a local Wild Advisor, one of 30+ people sharing skills and experience in rewilding, nature restoration, growing food, wellbeing, creative nature connection, ecotourism and more.

A Wild Advisor can offer a chat, some practical advice, or even run a session or activity, in person or online, free of charge while funding lasts. Have a look at the advisors and see who you might like to connect with here.  

With thanks to Ouse Valley Climate Action for supporting this initiative.
