Branching Out at Westonbirt Arboretum

Bring Westonbirt to you!

Our outreach programme allows people living in residential care homes within a ten mile radius of Westonbirt to experience the arboretum through a multi-sensory exploration of Westonbirt's tree collection.

This six week programme offers a range of activities, designed to boost well-being and mental health. Where possible, the programme can be specifically tailored to your group’s needs. In week one, our friendly and experienced team will visit and leave you with a box of sensory activities to enable you to continue exploring the arboretum for yourselves, until week six, when you’ll round off the programme with a visit to the arboretum.
