Adam visits the Natural History Museum in London to learn about the National Education Nature Park programme from Laura.

This initiative encourages schools across England to transform their outdoor spaces into greener areas by planting pollinator-friendly plants, building ponds, and creating green walls, aiming to benefit both wildlife and the mental well-being of students!

Laura explains the programme's five-step process, which includes assessing the site, planning, and implementing changes, and then evaluating the impact on local wildlife and the community's response. The programme also offers digital tools and creative activities, making it accessible to a wide range of interests and abilities.
