WE ARE PATHMAKERS.

WE IMPROVE ACCESS TO THE NORFOLK COUNTRYSIDE TO MAKE LIVES BETTER

WE'RE A CHARITY DEDICATED TO IMPROVING ACCESS TO THE NORFOLK COUNTRYSIDE FOR PEOPLE OF ALL ABILITIES AND BACKGROUNDS.

How do we do it?

How we do it? We work on partnerships with organisations and communities to help run, facilitate or support projects – both financially and in other ways – that improve countryside access.

Why do we do it?

Improving countryside access will enable communities to get outdoors and connect with nature, which in turn will have a positive impact to their health and wellbeing.

We have a new project starting!

We have been granted £10,000 from Norfolk Community Foundation through Norfolk Offshore Windfarms Community Fund.

A new Project

Natural Connections, a community-led project running initially in three Norfolk  towns, Aylsham, Dereham and North Walsham, is looking to connect local communities to the nature and wildlife of their area through short distance walks.

We will encourage and support more people to go outdoors in their local area to connect with Norfolk’s natural and cultural heritage from footpaths and trails.  

We will be offering you as an individual, or your community group – 

  • Walk leader Training to confidently plan walks in your community 
  • First Aid Training 
  • Help in creating short walks near you
  • A way to share the health benefits of walking and being in the countryside,

How to take part – 

If you are in Aylsham, Dereham or North Walsham and would like to be part of Natural Connections please get in touch by email or social media.
