IMAGINE A WORLD IN WHICH THE ONLY CONCRETE EXPERIENCE IS CONCRETE EXPERIENCE - WHERE PEOPLE GROW UP IN AN URBAN ENVIRONMENT WITH NO EXPERIENCE OF WOODS, FARMLAND OR WILD AREAS. FOR SOME YOUNG PEOPLE, THIS IS REALITY, EVEN THOSE LIVING IN THE COUNTY OF HEREFORDSHIRE AND ESPECIALLY THOSE LIVING IN URBAN AREAS IN BIG CITIES. EVERY YOUNG PERSON UNQUESTIONABLY DESERVES THE OPPORTUNITY TO SPEND TIME IN THEIR NATURAL WORLD
