Connecting with nature | Rail Wellbeing Live

Join our hosts Eleni Jordan from Chiltern Railways, and Huw Jones of BAM Nuttall, for May’s Wellbeing Wednesday. We’ll be discussing our Connection with Nature, with certified forest therapy guide, Sam Wright.

Nature is so central to our psychological and emotional health, that it is almost impossible to realise good mental health without a positive connection to the natural world. Sam will be talking about our connection with nature, why it is important, and how we can introduce more nature to our work and personal lives.
