This summer we have received funding to run some Nature Connection groups at Three Hares. From June onwards we have had Adult Mental Health groups and Refugee/Asylum Seeker groups join us at Three Hares to share and enjoy the land, and feel connected/re-connected to nature.

The Refugee/Asylum Seeker Groups welcomed families from Ukraine and Syria and were supported by Artlink and Edinburgh Sponsorship Circle.

All groups thoroughly enjoyed Three Hares, especially learning about the trees and plants we have growing there. To be with company, immersed in nature, even if just for an afternoon, brought much joy and other benefits to the participants and facilitators.
