Hard Tasks and Soft Skills III

Rails were nailed and polythene trimmed while weeds were pulled and pushed into compost bins! Slabs were brushed and pots of yesterdays compost emptied with pots cleaned, divided and put in order. We learned that working as part of a team with Countryside Ranger Gavin and Senior Ranger Greig could not only get a job done but would boost our Health and Wellbeing at the same time. We talked and laughed throughout the day and were able to link each activity to improving Mental, Emotional, Physical and Social Health. Our comments highlighted mental health being improved by being busy with a 'job well done'. We contributed to a joint goal and talked as we worked promoting our social health while constantly working with a range of physical tasks certainly boosted our physical health, lifting, bending, stretching and more. Emotionally well that one is straight forward and if you look at our faces filled with satisfaction and contentment then we are sure you will appreciate why!!! #ACTIVELEARNINGTHEWAYFORWARD
