There has been a flurry of feedback from projects that the Areti Charitable Trust has helped to fund over the past year. Here are some of them.
Lancashire Boys & Girls Club provided activities for 371 children over the school summer holidays at Forrest Hills, Lancaster.
Lancashire Youth Challenge took young people to Cumbria to engage with the landscape and learn more about woodland and farming.
Lancaster Boys and Girls Club also provided activities for young people during the summer holidays, focussing on healthy living, healthy eating, exercise and having respect for the environment.
Arnside & Silverdale AONB fed back on their year working with pupils referred from Chadwick School. The headteacher noted the beneficial impact of spending time in nature for the pupils, and for 2023/24 it is hoped to train a member of Chadwick staff as a forest school leader.
Meanwhile, the RSPB at Leighton Moss continues is inviting local primary schools to the nature reserve.
