We are delighted to share that the John Jackson Charitable Trust is continuing to support the work Wilder Life Wellbeing CIC do with their 'Nurture in Nature-taking cancer support into the woods' project. We really appreciate them helping to fund this innovative and important work.

Wilder Life Wellbeing CIC are thrilled to share that they have been awarded funding from The National Lottery to continue their hugely successful 'Nurture in Nature' project for another year. This woodland based cancer support group is a ten week programme based in the beautiful woodland at Herstmonceux Castle, East Sussex. With the brilliant financial support from The National Lottery we are able to offer this exciting and nourishing experience for free.
If you or someone you know is affected by cancer and would like to learn more about the Nurture in Nature eco-therapy programme, we’d love to hear from you.
This project is co-facilitated by:
Elisa Dalla Vedova – a BACP counsellor with experience in eco-therapy and supporting individuals through life-changing health journeys
Helen Stringfellow and Sam Finn– trained Nature Connection Practitioners with Level 3 Forest School qualifications and many years of experience creating safe, inclusive, and enriching outdoor spaces for healing and connection.
We want to offer a nurturing environment where nature, creativity, and compassionate support come together.
