This project will offer relaxation and engagement with nature, through therapeutic music and community participation. High quality, outdoor music workshops will be provided over a weekend in a community woodland setting in the Scottish Borders to communities and families. Participants will record and release an album of nature-inspired songs to share with families to capture the essence of community and environmental awareness. The workshops and album will be therapeutic and promote wellbeing and healthy lifestyles, teach singing and language skills, share knowledge of flora and fauna, and the seasons and seasonal foods, increase joy and inspire love for nature and environment. Beneficiaries: Approximately 40 families attending the workshops with the album distributed to 60+ families locally in the Scottish Borders. Participants with additional needs, or from underprivileged backgrounds, or with mobility barriers will be welcomed.
