Have you, like many of us during the #pandemic, discovered #green spaces on your doorstep that you never knew about? I've lived in #Southampton since 2006, but it was after the pandemic I discovered that we've got some excellent #greenways in Southampton, effectively green havens for #wildlife, among #residential areas. So I was delighted to work on "The Green Hour' project, funded by #PublicHealth Southampton, with the fantastic group of people who set up the free #walking app Go Jauntly. These curated walks, named after the local #residents who have a strong connection with the greenways, are uploaded on #GoJaunty and give you all the #knowledge you need to get started, including #step-by-step #photographs: how long the walk, #publictransport options to get there, #carparks, places to stop for breaks, and other interesting facts including some audio interviews with our local green heroes. I'd be delighted if you'd look into it and give feedback on any Go Jauntly walk in Southampton and beyond.

Highly recommend an anti-rage walk. Stare into the distance. Collect some leaves. Hug some trees. Feel the cold on your face. Enjoy the awe and wonder of the changing colours. Take up space. Breathe. #natureconnection #naturenotes
