My guest today is Amie Andrews, and in this episode, we dive into the transformative potential of nature-based solutions for health, wellbeing, and community resilience.

In this episode we discuss:

• The role of Small Woods National Charity, including their history and mission to connect people with woodlands.
• What social forestry is and how it supports both woodland health and human wellbeing.
• The growing appetite for nature-based activities and the evolving partnership between people and the environment.
• Insights on balancing human benefits from woodlands with the need to enhance biodiversity and sustainability.
• Tackling funding challenges in social forestry and how to create sustainable models for the future.
• The health benefits of nature-based activities, including green prescriptions and their role in healthcare.
• How policy-makers, researchers, and communities are collaborating to create evidence-based, scalable solutions.
• Connecting local grassroots efforts to larger policy changes and economic shifts.
