Reconnect in nature: wellbeing walk for war widows, defence and veteran families
Walking through nature feels different with a guide who knows what to point out. War widows, defence and veteran families can join us at Mulligans Flat Woodland Sanctuary on Friday 3 July 2026 for a nature connection walk—a slower-paced, sensory take on our popular wellbeing walks.
Nature connection walk
Nature and Forest Therapy Guide Sarah Murray-Boyd will lead participants through techniques such as mindful breathing, sensory awareness, grounding, and silent observation to encourage relaxation, presence and reflection. It is a gentle, 90-minute, sensory based guided walk designed to help participants to reconnect with nature and themselves.
Attendees are invited to continue connecting after the walk at Wildbark Café. Coffee is available for purchase at own expense.
Previous attendees of wellbeing activities said “I enjoyed spending time outdoors, exploring somewhere new, getting fresh air and gentle exercise, and connecting with others who understand my lifestyle and experiences.”
