Reconnecting people with nature
Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life? Mary Oliver 'The Summer Day'
Welcome to Go Wild With Us UK!
Thank you for visiting to find out more about what we do.
Go Wild With Us is a Community Interest Company with a mission to try and reconnect people with nature and their own wildness through outdoor experiences and yoga. We believe that everyone needs regular contact with nature and the outdoors, and both research and personal experience tells us that being outdoors and spending time in nature is absolutely essential for good mental and physical well being.
We know that not everyone is lucky enough to have access to wild spaces all the time, but through our partnerships with local community groups and charities, we try to do our bit to enable children, young people and families from a variety of backgrounds to get some meaningful time out there in nature.

Our Inspirations
The Summer Day
Who made the world?
Who made the swan, and the black bear?
Who made the grasshopper?
This grasshopper, I mean--
the one who has flung herself out of the grass,
the one who is eating sugar out of my hand,
who is moving her jaws back and forth instead of up and down --
who is gazing around with her enormous and complicated eyes.
Now she lifts her pale forearms and thoroughly washes her face.
Now she snaps her wings open, and floats away.
I don't know exactly what a prayer is.
I do know how to pay attention, how to fall down
into the grass, how to kneel in the grass,
how to be idle and blessed, how to stroll through the fields
which is what I have been doing all day.
Tell me, what else should I have done?
Doesn't everything die at last, and too soon?
Tell me, what is it you plan to do
With your one wild and precious life?
