Spread the Word is part of the Nature Nurtures collective of organisations that includes London Wildlife Trust, Black Girls Hike CIC and London Youth. We’re collaborating to offer amazing free opportunities for 16 – 25 year old Londoners to explore and develop practical conservation and creative skills. Nature Nurtures want to work with London’s youth to create a friendly community who want to explore nature conservation, social action and the creative arts. Whether you’re a nature novice, hiking enthusiast, or have never even flexed a creative muscle – Nature Nurtures invites you to join us for our next workshop!
By becoming a regular member of our community we’ll tailor future Nature Nurtures workshops to your interests, you’ll be given access to OCN accredited Youth Leadership training led by London Youth and Volunteer Management training led by London Wildlife Trust. You’ll also have the chance for your creative work to be professionally published in a nature anthology and other creative productions.
