Our work in the local area is well supported by a number of individuals and organisations. One of those is the National Forest Company who are based near Conkers.
I'd like to share some information about a project currently under way. Please help spread the word to those who would be interested in this project based on several walks around the National Forest, including Rosliston most locally.
Treefest aims to explore how the UK’s treescapes affect the public and evaluate how the form and function of these woodland and forests benefit society. This in turn will help to safeguard these environments for future generations and the rest of the natural world. We have designed eight walks across the National Forest, which can be found on the Go Jauntly app (free to download). Participants will be asked a few simple questions before and after the walk, and the data will be analysed by the researchers at the University of Derby to see how different treescapes can support wellbeing. The more people that join in this study, the better the data will be so we’re really keen to get as many people as possible engaged! You can find out more about the study and how to take part here:

As an extra incentive, survey respondents who complete a walk before the end of October will be entered into a free prize draw to win one of twenty £100 vouchers as a thank you for taking part (T&Cs apply).
