While out on our tour of groups who received a Nature Heals Seed Fund grant this week we had a wonderful stop at Radipole Lake where @CoCreateDorset run fantastic art and nature sessions for the local deaf community to support mental health and wellbeing.

It was a privilege spending time with #Dorset High Sheriff Sibyl King yesterday, visiting some of the groups her Nature Heals Fund supported – @CoCreateDorset, Townsend Youth Partnership, Friends of Hamworthy Park and @PowerHousePoole. Thanks all for your time and hospitality.

It was also great for Sibyl to see the faith she placed in us to deliver on her goals for the fund was justified. We can tailor what we do to meet any donor's needs – using our extensive knowledge of the county's voluntary sector to ensure their money makes the biggest impact.
