WOODLAND WIDFLOWERS PROJECT

The wildflower sowing season is in full swing! - having started late due to cold soils and a very dry April.

Our Great Outdoors Project in Knowsley, Merseyside funded by the Big Lottery, invites local people to come along and help us sow seed in their parks and greenspaces. Using wildflowers to bring life, colour and biodiversity interest into mown grass areas, we are encouraging people to get out and about, and improve their health and wellbeing. more

Discover Yourself Outside
New Landscapes for a civil society in a changing climate.
A new publication for spring 2010 co-authored by Landlife with the UK UNESCO MAB Urban Forum

Everyone wants their outdoor neighbourhood to be attractive, stimulating, safe and well cared for - a place to be proud of. Everyone wants daily life to be more satisfying and less stressful - to be able to go outside more often enhances personal well-being and helps people to get to know and trust more of their neighbours. Achieving these aspirations, builds stable communities with positive outlooks about their environment. more
