Nuthatch Retreats was the vision of our founder, Neil Peters. Neil has been working in suicide prevention as a programme manager and a freelancer project lead for over 10 years - his day job is to deliver suicide prevention projects as part of Nuthatch Consultants. He previously worked at suicide prevention charity Samaritans.

Neil has a growing interest in the power of nature to support wellbeing, has felt called to develop this vision further by launching Nuthatch Retreats. He wants to introduce people to basic activities and techniques to support their wellbeing through nature.

As Nuthatch Retreats begins its journey, Neil is supported by partners and volunteers who support his vision.

Using nature to support people’s wellbeing, we create opportunities for people to get outside, spend time in nature and take part in activities such as forest bathing, mindfulness, bird watching and walk & talks.
