The concept of Rewilding is restoring a piece of land to its natural, uncultivated state - often by allowing native species to regrow there, namely flora and fauna. This podcast will explore the topic of physical Rewilding; but also the concept of Rewilding our minds. Has working from home allowed us to reconnect with our local spaces? Can we rewild our relationship with our local communities to be stronger and more caring? How can we better use the spaces we have available to us in our local areas?
