Welcome, partners

You have told us what resources could help you to deliver safe and impactful sessions alongside the guided conversation and introduction of the RSPB Nature Prescription booklet. 

We hope you find everything you might need on these pages, but please reach out to us if you have any issues. We're always happy to hear from you!

Friendly reminder:

Any organisation or community group using RSPB Nature Prescriptions or related materials (including these downloadable resources) must ensure these are offered free of charge to participants. This includes the activity or service within which the Nature Prescriptions materials are being used, for example, a guided walk where participants pay to join should not use our group activity cards.

Nature Prescriptions must not be used by groups or services that charge recipients for participation. This includes private providers of healthcare services.    

Reach out if you're unsure, we're here to help! 

Alternative languages 

The RSPB has translated similar materials into multiple languages through historic projects. Most of these are available online via the Nature connection activity training resources page.
