About Us
Discover Our Purpose
Nature Therapy Hub has been created as a gentle response to gaps in community and wellbeing spaces, particularly where people navigating loneliness, neurodiversity, caring roles, migration, or life transitions may feel less seen or supported. The project is shaped by lived experience, reflection, and ongoing listening, rather than fixed solutions.
Our purpose is to hold space for connection, reflection, and belonging through nature-based and relational practices. The Hub is intended to grow slowly and collaboratively, in dialogue with the communities it serves. We are interested in how small, consistent spaces, rooted in care and attentiveness, can support wellbeing for individuals, families, and the wider community.
Our core values
The work of Nature Therapy Hub is guided by a set of shared values that influence how spaces are held, how activities are offered, and how relationships are built:
- Inclusivity – creating spaces that are welcoming to people from different cultural backgrounds, life experiences, abilities, and identities, while remaining attentive to who may feel excluded or overlooked.
- Care and emotional safety – prioritising gentleness, respect, and non-judgement, so people can engage at their own pace and feel supported rather than pressured.
- Accessibility – considering practical, emotional, and social barriers to participation, and exploring ways to reduce these where possible.
- Representation and belonging – recognising the importance of people seeing themselves reflected in wellbeing spaces, and fostering environments where difference is acknowledged and valued.
Connection through nature – using nature-based experiences as a grounding and shared point of connection that can support reflection, wellbeing, and community.
These values are not presented as fixed outcomes, but as ongoing commitments that continue to evolve through learning, reflection, and dialogue with those who engage with the Hub.
About the Founder
Nature Therapy Hub was founded by Rachida Eraifay, whose interest in nature-based and community wellbeing work has grown through lived experience, professional practice, and ongoing learning.
Their approach is shaped by experiences of care, migration, and navigating change, alongside work and study in wellbeing, community support, and nature-connected practice. Rather than offering fixed answers, they are interested in creating spaces where people can slow down, reflect, and reconnect — with themselves, with others, and with the natural world.
Nature Therapy Hub brings together these strands as a shared, evolving project. While Rachida continues to develop their own practice and learning, the Hub itself is intended as a collective space that grows through listening, collaboration, and care.
