Reconnect this Autumn and Winter

We’re delighted to say that we’ve secured more funding from Sussex Community Foundation to continue our 4 week Reconnect courses offering more chances to get out into nature with others this autumn and winter.

This time of year can be so tricky for some but exposure to light, connection with people and the earth can be so helpful in warding off those winter blues.

We have courses running on nearly every day of the week so there’s bound to be one that will work for you or your clients. We’re also offering 2 gentler courses on Mondays for those who would love to join us but may have lower energy levels or less physical mobility.

For more information and to register for a place see Reconnect — Growing wellbeing

Join us for the Big Green Day Out

If you’re looking for something really rather lovely to do on Saturday 16th October why not take part in the Big Green Day Out.

Explore Sussex and discover all the wonderful green wellbeing projects that are doing such great work on a number of trails across Sussex. Tour the sites, meet the project leaders and experience the benefits of being outside in some beautiful locations.

For more information on the trails available including maps and info about each project see the Facebook event Big Green Day Out

We hope to see you there

Grow is springing to life!

Reconnecting with Grow this spring

Hello everyone, we hope you are enjoying the beauty of springtime and the chance to reconnect with nature and friends as the lockdown begins to ease. As it is now possible to meet in small groups together, Grow is starting to run in-person Reconnect sessions again. If you are interested then check out the information on those pages and get in touch. We’d love for you to join us.

Grow is on YouTube!

We’re also very happy to announce that Grow now has a YouTube channel! And to celebrate its launch, you can enjoy watching the “Hope Springs” video that some of you very kindly contributed images, videos and poems to. The video is a mini journey from wintertime to spring to capture the changing of the seasons. And what better time to release it than this moment as we experience a bit more freedom to spend time with others.

Please feel free to share the video with your friends and family :-)

Wishing you all a gentle and enriching time this spring.
