Charlie is a Volunteer and Engagement Officer at South East Rivers Trust who's work focuses on our Chalk Steams in the City project funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund.

Charlie is a wildlife lover, nature photographer, wellbeing facilitator, and creative artist. Through holding nature connection spaces for people from marginalised backgrounds, their work weaves creative practices with wellbeing to build reciprocal relationships between communities and the natural world. They love providing people with foraged materials, art supplies and the confidence to draw inspiration from nature whilst nurturing a community of people and wildlife. In their spare time, you'll find Charlie somewhere scenic, connecting with the land through photography, collaging, painting and the occasional spontaneous sketch.
