VOICES FOR WATER, is in aid of The Wilderness Foundation UK and will be an evening packed full of inspirational speakers. Through personal stories of experiences in nature and transformations in the wilderness, the evening will raise awareness of our natural landscapes, the wonderful work being undertaken by the Wilderness Foundation UK, and inspire and engage people to conserve nature.

The Foundation engages over 8,000 people per year with the benefits and enjoyment of wild nature. Programmes develop future sustainability leaders, build resilience in vulnerable teenagers with challenging lives and mental health issues, introduce rural employment to urban youth, and bring curriculum-based sciences to life in the outdoors. They switch off technology and switch on reality.

During the event visitors can also visit WATERLINES – an art exhibition curated by, and showcasing artists from, The Wilderness Art Collective, supporting The Wilderness Foundation UK. The Wilderness Art Collective is a non-profit group of creatives, artists, explorers and environmentalists whose work discusses the natural world. WATERLINES is a continuation of the conversation started in 2019 with their first exhibition LANDLINES, exploring landscape. Artists are now producing work inspired by their own relationship to water and the conservations that surround it.

The evening will also consist of a silent auction, raffle and book sales and all proceeds from the evening will go towards the Wilderness Foundation UK.
