There's nothing better than taking some time to #ConnectWithNature listening to the sounds of nature.

[The Wildlife Trusts @WildlifeTrusts]

This #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek we’re asking everybody to #ConnectWithNature. Spend just a little time listening to bird song, stopping to smell the flowers, or watching a busy bee! 💚🌸🐝

A few ideas to do at home to connect with nature.

[The Wildlife Trusts @WildlifeTrusts]

We know that nature is good for us but it can be hard to know how to connect with wildlife at home. We've got some great resources to keep the whole family entertained 👉 https://t.co/Oog1hUejN3 🤸🏡🐞

[Friends DCP @FriendsDcp]

Unfortunately the Council have had to make the tough decision to close the car park and play area to assist with social distancing and reduce numbers at our lovely park. #StayAtHome

[Daventry parkrun @daventryparkrun]

Quick heads up to anyone considering Daventry this weekend; we have had to cancel for 1 more weekend to let the park recover from the ongoing work. Can you spread the word to anyone who might have been considering coming over to the country park. We hope to be back on 14th March!

[Friends DCP @FriendsDcp]

We can't wait to see the new facilities ☕️🍰

[Friends DCP @FriendsDcp]

We couldn't agree more, a very special place for all to explore and enjoy 😍
