Urban Nature Wellbeing Club – Mindful mandalas
With Greenwich Peninsula Ecology Park Events
At Greenwich Peninsula Ecology Park
Activity description
Join us for a creative session to celebrate the launch of our new wellbeing programme. If you’re 18 or over and interested in learning more about mental health, building practical wellbeing tools, and connecting with a supportive community, this club could be the perfect space for you. In January, we’ll be joined by local artist Jenny to decorate beautiful journals with vibrant mandala patterns. You’ll explore the symbolism of mandalas and discover how to use them as a mindful practice to support your wellbeing. Leave with a personally crafted journal—a thoughtful gift for yourself or a loved one—and a sense of calm and relaxation. This session is free, but booking is essential as only 12 spaces are available. To reserve your spot, email: Georgiana.irimia@tcv.org.uk Programme delivered by the Friends of Greenwich Peninsula Ecology Park and funded by the London Community Foundation

With York Practical Conservation - Weekend

We run practical conservation tasks in various locations in York and the surrounding area from 10am-4.30pm on the second and fourth Sundays of each month. Transport is provided from Tang Hall Community Centre and the University Library bus stop on University Road. No experience necessary. The work varies from season to season. In winter you could be tree planting, hedge laying, or creating and maintaining ponds and wetlands; whilst in summer you could be constructing wildlife areas in schools, creating footpaths, making hay, or undertaking invasive species control. If you want to get involved in practical work outdoors, learn new skills (or share old ones!) and work with a fun and friendly group then come and join in.
