Urban Hike - Islington Wildlife Haven

Curious about biodiversity right on your door step!

This March we're getting to know our home in a different way. London is home to incredible nature reserves without us having to leave the city. 

Take a leisurely stroll with us as we explore hidden gems in the city, meeting one of London's nature reserves  integrated amidst the urban landscape. This is not just a walk; it’s a journey of reflection and connection, where you'll discover the serenity that nature can bring even in the busiest of places.

Assisted by GoJauntly, we’ve designed this activity to be a memorable adventure that encourages you to pause, breathe, and appreciate the natural world around us. These guided walks are part of a series of three, each unveiling different corners of London that often go unnoticed. 

All proceeds from these walks will support our new initiative in local parks, in partnership with Samuel Rhodes School. We’re dedicated to providing apprenticeship opportunities for children with challenging needs, offering them hands-on nature and horticulture learning experiences.

Each cohort will empower 4-6 children, helping them develop skills, build confidence, and forge connections with nature in an urban setting. With your help, we aim to run 10 cohorts this year, giving 40-60 children a chance to thrive and experience the joys of nature.

We understand that accessibility is key, so we’ve created various ticket price brackets and even offer a limited number of free tickets to ensure everyone can join in on the fun. After all, connecting with nature should be an experience available to all. And for those under 16, their journey is on us!
