Nature Connection Guide: Session plans for youth clubs
These sessions were designed by the Centre for Sustainable Energy in partnership with Hartcliffe Club for Young People and Avon Youth Club and funded by the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC), part of UK Research and Innovation. The sessions were delivered between December 2025 and March 2026.
The aim of the sessions was to inspire young people to develop a personal connection with nature in a meaningful way. Below, we’ve published our session plans so that other youth clubs can lead their own nature connection sessions.
