With The Substance, you can generate another you: younger, more beautiful, more perfect. You just have to share time — one week for one, one week for the other. A perfect balance of seven days each… Easy right? If you respect the balance… What could possibly go wrong?

- STEP OUTSIDE WITH A NATURE BUDDY
Date: 23/10/2025Step outside with a Nature Buddy
If you’ve ever wanted to spend more time outdoors but felt unsure about how to start, you’re not alone, and help is at hand.
The Nature Buddies Network is a Dorset-wide initiative designed to support people to get outdoors and enjoy nature to improve their health and wellbeing. Whether you’re feeling isolated, anxious, or lacking the confidence to get outside alone, Nature Buddies can help.
Managed by Dorset National Landscape in partnership with Volunteer Centre Dorset, and supported by The National Lottery Heritage Fund, the project matches trained volunteer Nature Buddies with people who could benefit from FREE, gentle, friendly support to enjoy the outdoors.
Nature Buddies can accompany you on a walk, help you visit local green spaces, support you to try an outdoor activity or even take part in nature-based activities with you at home.
It has been proven that spending time in nature – even just a couple of hours a week – can lift your mood, ease stress, boost your immune system and improve your physical wellbeing. Whether it’s a stroll through a local park or simply sitting among trees, let nature be your natural health service.
If you or someone you know could benefit from a Nature Buddy please visit: https://www.dorset-nl.org.uk/project/nature-buddies-network to find out more, or call Kate on 01305 228246 / email: kate.townsend@dorsetcouncil.gov.uk.

About Stepping into Nature:
The Dorset National Landscape has been running ground-breaking health and wellbeing projects since Stepping into Nature was set up in 2016.
The Dorset landscape is full of opportunities to enjoy nature in fun, social and creative ways. For some of us though, finding opportunities to enjoy nature that suits our needs are harder to come by. Ability, confidence, and age can all influence what we can and can’t do. The Stepping into Nature project is about listening to our community in Dorset and working in partnership to enable everyone to enjoy nature.
