30 Days Wild, the UK's biggest nature challenge, is the ideal oppor-tunity to reconnect with nature, to take a break from screens and step into nature with The Wildlife Trusts.

We're here to help you have the best time imaginable with opportuni-ties to engage in simple yet meaning-ful outdoor activities that will spark your inner creativity, help you recon-nect with your local patch and boost your well-being.

After a decade of success, we've pulled together a wealth of fresh ideas to deliver pure outdoor magic as we embark on our wildest June yet.

As well as welcoming back 30 Days Wild devotees - we want to extend a warm welcome to first tim-ers yet to discover what it's all about.

The concept is wildly simple the aim is to do something linked to nature each day through June.

Everything counts, from enjoying your first brew of the day in your gar-den listening to the bird song, to planting a tree, visiting a nature reserve you've never been to before or trying a spot of volunteering - the options are endless.
