Nature Away Days
We manage over 22 hectares of green space in Rochdale and Trafford. However, as a charity, we receive little to no funding for the maintenance and improvement of these nature sites.
Our corporate partners help us create spaces where nature has the opportunity to thrive and which showcase the role of nature-based solutions in tackling the climate emergency. These same beautiful spaces provide opportunities to connect with nature, for learning and for play.
By taking part in a Nature Away Day your team will be helping contribute to these goals, whilst also benefiting from them.
On the day your team will be supported by our expert team, who will ensure the day runs smoothly, provide supervision and share their own nature knowledge.
Nature Away Days cost £1,000 + VAT for 20 people
Larger group numbers can be accommodated. If you are unable to source 20 people but you still wish to take part, there may be an opportunity to join a collaborative session with other businesses.
