About this Event

Nature's Cure in Time of Need; Community Workshop

Come join the Natural History Society of Northumbria at the Land of Oak and Iron for a free workshop celebrating the natural heritage of the region as part of the Nature’s Cure in Time of Need: New Voices for North East Nature project.

This Heritage Lottery-funded initiative aims to capture underrepresented voices and their stories of how nature has provided comfort and strength in challenging times. These stories will then be consolidated as part of a new collection in the North East Nature Archive, housed in the Great North Museum: Hancock and preserved for future generations.

During the morning there will be a presentation about the North East Nature Archive, we will look for special nature places on a community map, create nature journals and write short stories of ‘nature’s cure in times of need’. Light refreshments included.


Follow the link below for more information and an outline of the workshops activities – we look forward to seeing you there!

Please also let us know that you would like to attend by reserving your free place here.
