Welcome to:
Forest of Hearts
We are a non-profit Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) and our mission is to create a greener, healthier and more sustainable future where people, places and nature thrive.
We offer Green Therapy sessions to the local community, create great gardens of wellbeing and organise a variety of green team-building and volunteering events for corporate groups.
Our Services
Green Therapy
Green Therapy is a chance to get outdoors and be a part of something useful and enjoyable. Our small, friendly groups meet weekly or monthly in lovely locations and offer a chance to meet new people and help to create and maintain gardens and green spaces for all to enjoy.
Great Gardens
We design and create great gardens that are wildlife friendly, beautiful and increase biodiversity. Our accessible and welcoming green spaces are enjoyed at a number of NHS hospitals and community sites. Let us help to transform your outdoor space into a place of tranquility.
Green Teams
Enjoy meaningful employee engagement experiences to benefit the environment, wildlife and community. Our outdoor activities are tailored to meet your group needs and are suitable for every season. Each event will help protect our environmental and wellbeing programmes.
