Tiny Forests, Big Impact: Community Action with GoodGym & Earthwatch
In this episode, we explore how community power, volunteering, and nature-based solutions are reshaping urban spaces. I speak with GoodGym volunteers about the joy of combining fitness with local impact, and with Dr. Clare Narraway of Earthwatch, who leads the Tiny Forests initiative.
Together, we look at how small patches of urban woodland can tackle climate change, boost biodiversity, and bring people closer together while volunteers like GoodGym make it possible on the ground.
If you’ve ever wondered how running, gardening, and trees can transform cities, this conversation will inspire you to see your local green space in a whole new way.
