SEASONS - Digital: Embark on a Joyful Exploration of Nature
GMT
Join Upswing for the launch of SEASONS – Digital. A brand new online activity hub that encourages young people to connect and care for their environment.
It can be easy to feel disconnected from nature when we live in a big city, yet there are small and mighty pockets always around us; whether it be grass springing from a cracked pavement, a tall tree top visible from our window, or a fox rustling in our bins.
Through audio stories and films, you and your family will be inspired to get to know nature and take a closer look at the world around us.
SEASONS was created to ignite a new generation of urban explorers to value our environment by engaging with it, adventuring in it, and finding a personal connection to it. When more and more young people amire, appreciate and enjoy the simple magic of their environment, it is more likely that they will take care of it, for now and for the future.
Suitable for ages 5+ You will be able to stream the stories directly from the browser and listen to them at home, or download them and take them with you on a walk.
Seasons is funded by John Lyon’s Charity, the London Community Foundation and Brent London Borough of Culture 2020 and created with children and families in Brent.
