The wonderful wildlife in the nation’s forests makes them special places to enjoy. This variety of life is known as biodiversity 🌳

Sadly, we're living in a global biodiversity crisis, and the United Kingdom is ranked as one of the most nature depleted countries in the world 🪹

Absolutely love the folklore of trees and woodland 😍

Ancient celts saw hawthorn as a symbol of the magic of spring. Its striking white blossom was thought to bring communities good luck whilst its thorns shielded against harm and evil spirits.

Proposed Project | Rewilding for Wellbeing (Tees Valley)

Do you have Special Educational Needs or a Disability? Are you a parent or carer of someone with SEND? Would time spent active in greenspaces be a benefit?

We are looking to secure funding to provide long-term and wholesome Forest School Programmes at our Dunsdale site, in partnership with Rewilding Adventure, and are looking to scope interest from people of all ages with Special Educational Needs and/or a Disability, and parents or carers of children with SEND, who live in the Tees Valley.

To help us shape this, we have created the following questionnaire; if you have SEND or are the parent of someone who does (regardless of age) we'd be really chuffed if you have could take a few minutes to complete it:
