Nature’s Healing Hand for All

Leanne Wharton founded Soul Trail Wellbeing during the pandemic to create a safe, inclusive space for people from racialized communities to connect with nature — a space where mental health, confidence, and belonging thrive. Through regular hikes and wellbeing programs, the group tackles barriers like safety, accessibility, and unfamiliarity with rural spaces. One participant, once paralyzed by social anxiety, found life-changing support and newfound courage through the group. With 165 people supported last year and active involvement in the Festival of Nature, Soul Trail Wellbeing proves that nature’s healing power is most potent when everyone feels truly welcome.
