Since summer 2022, Spread the Word has collaborated with London Wildlife Trust, with Black Girls Hike CIC and London Youth for Nature Nurtures, a programme offering free creative and conservation workshops and opportunities for young people aged 16 – 25 in London. As part of the programme, young people were invited to contribute their creative expressions inspired by their participation in the project and by London’s nature and wildlife to an anthology. This beautiful anthology opens the window to young people’s perspective of the natural world in London and amplifies their voices.
