The stress of illness or caring can be helped by time off in nature. We want to build a small woodland hut that will provide this.

Hi, I am Zac, I am putting £20 from my pocket money because I think this is an amazing project. I sometimes get very stressed by school and going into nature especially fishing and kayaking really helps me. I hope the Hut is a place where people can calm down and enjoy some time without any pressure.

Seems like a great project to help reconnect mind, body and spirit. I'm looking forward to hearing more about progress and success in months a years to come.

very keen to support any effort to encourage people to engage with the natural world in order to enhance sense of healing and wellbeing in body, mind and spirit. May it be the first of many in Scotland.

Very pleased to support this project (inspired by Tony) which will benefit so many people facing difficulties and in need of a quiet break to recharge their batteries.
