I'm raising £5000 to restore urban nature in Camden's schools and communities

Story

We’re a Community Interest Company dedicated to bringing more nature into schools and local communities. Our goal is to boost biodiversity, improve air quality, and give young people meaningful opportunities to connect with the natural world.

In schools and on housing estates, we transform dull, lifeless green areas into vibrant habitats. We plant native hedges, mini forests, pollinator-friendly borders, wildflower meadows, and orchards. We build ponds, harvest rainwater, and create spaces where wildlife can truly thrive. Along the way, students and residents learn about their environment through hands-on, practical work.

More nature doesn’t just support wildlife—it supports people. Greener spaces have been shown to reduce stress, lift moods, and improve overall wellbeing.

We also help reconnect secondary school students with the outdoors through foraging walks and nature-based day trips, opening their eyes to the rich world around them.
