NORTHUMBERLAND National Park has joined forces with community organisation North East Wilds to help provide ‘at-home’ nature experiences for young people impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic. Access and reliance on nature and natural spaces has become more important than ever, with the national park seeing a rise in people accessing it last summer. However, some children in the region have difficulty accessing the outdoors for their wellbeing, which has only been further hindered by the isolation caused by coronavirus. In collaboration with the national park, North East Wilds has created 100 activity boxes for children across the region. The boxes are designed to help children use their imagination to connect with nature, with items including Northumberland meadow seeds, star bird feeders, a mobile curlew, a woodcut printmaking kit, grow your own basil set, a jigsaw and make your own Boggart kit.
