Nature Spaces was a green social prescribing project we delivered during November and December 2022 as part of a pilot project funded by Greenspring.
We invited the local social prescribing link workers to refer people who would benefit from some arts and crafts activity in the surroundings of the beautiful Derby Arboretum Park.
We also opened it up to other organisations to advertise it to their wellbeing groups such as Quad, Derby Women's Centre, Derbyshire Carers, Staywell and Derbyshire Mind as well as contacting people who had come to previous wellbeing sessions with Spiral Arts.
We had a good group of people attending each session and we had some laughs, chatter and creativity in the winter months.
We are pleased to say that we have received another grant to continue the sessions during 2023.
Here are some of the activities we created in November. Clay Mandalas, Papermaking, Nature Books and Leaf Printing.
