Green social prescribing is the practice of supporting people to engage in nature-based activities. This can include activities such as walking, cycling, community gardening and food-growing projects, as well as practical conservation tasks such as tree planting.

Feedback from the four events held between December and March have been positive, with attendees saying they left feeling ‘informed, healthier, happier’ and would visit Goss Moor NNR again.The wild ponies guided walks was one of 30 projects funded by the G7 Legacy Project.
