The Foundation is now developing this work further, as well as extending its health programme in a broader approach, which brings together both traditional and innovative ways of managing personal health.

Our programme aims to support positive change by focussing on the prevention of ill health by increasing the understanding of the inter-relationship between the health of individual human beings and that of their society and their environment. We believe that improving people’s sense of well being has a positive correlation with their personal health. This can often be facilitated by encouraging a greater sense of connection and meaning. We have witnessed the benefits of individuals reconnecting with other people and nature through uncomplicated but very effective interventions.

Our health programme therefore seeks to engage in partnership with other organisations and work with communities around Herefordshire to help find practical ways to facilitate health improvements through community development from a holistic and sustainable perspective.
