Plan, deliver and evaluate dementia-friendly forest and outdoor activities for people living with dementia and their carers.
Create safe, welcoming and accessible woodland environments tailored to varying stages of dementia and mobility needs.

Build trusting relationships with participants, carers and families, providing reassurance and encouragement.
Carry out risk assessments and ensure all sessions are delivered in line with health & safety and safeguarding requirements.
Work collaboratively with carers, dementia support services, health professionals and community partners.
Promote the Active Connections Forest programme and engage new participants through outreach and awareness-raising activities.
Maintain accurate records, attendance data and evaluation outcomes for monitoring and reporting purposes.
Support volunteers and colleagues involved in delivering forest-based dementia activities.
Contribute to service development, funding reports and continuous improvement of the programme.
Work as part of the wider Active Connections team, contributing to staff meetings and service planning.
Build and maintain partnerships with local green spaces, community gardens, wildlife groups, and other nature organisations.
