A new survey carried out for The Wildlife Trusts has revealed that more than half of those responding said connecting to nature by listening to bird song, hearing bees buzz, and seeing and smelling wildflowers was beneficial to their health and wellbeing.

The Savanta poll1 was carried out ahead of The Wildlife Trusts’ 30 Days Wild challenge, which takes place in June and calls on people to soak up the joy of the natural world throughout the month, this year through a weekly series of fun, themed activities.

In the last ten years, 30 Days Wild has attracted more than three million participants and helped people to get outside, to enjoy and connect with nature as part of their everyday lives.
