The motivations, interests and concerns of prospective peer leaders of nature-based mental health interventions
Background There is renewed, cross-sectoral interest in nature's contributions to health and how they can be maximised for public and planetary health. Current enquiry is focused on practicalities and what strategies and collaborations are needed to operationalise the nature-health relationship for both people and the environment. Nature-based health interventions (NBIs), especially those within the framework of nature-based social prescribing (N…

This study examined teachers' perspectives on how children benefit from time in nature, how disadvantage shapes access and the role of schools in facilitating such access. Drawing on interviews conducted in 2022 with 25 UK primary school teachers who participated in Generation Wild, a nature connection programme for schools in economically disadvantaged areas, the research explored how outdoor learning might support children's wellbeing and recov…
Pathways to nature connection? A photo-elicitation exploration on how children engage with a nature connection programme
While environmental education programmes have been shown to be effective in increasing knowledge and pro-environmental behaviour, it is not clear what characteristics of the intervention contribute to these outcomes. Detailed evaluations are needed to assess intermediary outcomes of such programmes to clarify the pathways to change. In this study, primary school children were asked to take photos while participating in a nature connection program…
A Qualitative Analysis of UK Wetland Visitor Centres as a Health Resource
The health benefits associated with spending time in natural environments have been highlighted during the COVID-19 pandemic. Lockdowns and restrictions to safeguard public health have exacerbated the pre-existing mental health crisis and rise of non-communicable diseases. Thus, the importance of nature as a health resource has been elevated, hastening calls for a better understanding of how health benefits might differ across user groups and nat…
Perspectives of ammunition users on the use of lead ammunition and its potential impacts on wildlife and humans
Recent national and international policy initiatives have aimed to reduce the exposure of humans and wildlife to lead from ammunition. Despite restrictions, in the UK, lead ammunition remains the most widespread source of environmental lead contamination to which wildlife may be exposed. The risks arising from the use of lead ammunition and the measures taken to mitigate these have prompted intense and sometimes acrimonious discussion between sta…
Wetlands for Wellbeing
Nature-based health interventions (NBIs) for the treatment of poor mental health are becoming increasingly common, yet evidence to support their effectiveness is lacking. We conduct a pilot study of a six-week intervention, aiming to engage individuals with wetland nature for the treatment of anxiety and/or depression. We employed a mixed methods design, using questionnaires, focus groups and semi-structured interviews to evaluate the interventio…
