Join us for a community screening of Wilding, the documentary telling the story of the #KneppEstate, one of the most influential #rewilding projects in the UK.
Hosted in our #CommunityGarden, this screening invites us to come together and explore what happens when land is allowed to recover, and how rethinking our relationship with #nature can transform landscapes, #biodiversity and our understanding of #conservation.
