The conference featured Damien Newman the head of Training and Education at Thrive giving a talk on the benefits of working on green spaces and how these activities could promote further learning as well as increased well being for those taking part in them. Mark Emery then presented a seed sowing exercise to demonstrate what adaptions could be made to the activities, such as sourcing the tools required to carry them out, by using materials found around the house or saved from the recycling bin. There was then time for participants to look through the resources created through the project and voice their thoughts on them, followed by a period of time for questions and answers at the end.<\/p><p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1784 alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/www.erasmus-metura.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Webinar-300x168.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"168\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.erasmus-metura.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Webinar-300x168.png 300w, https:\/\/www.erasmus-metura.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Webinar-24x13.png 24w, https:\/\/www.erasmus-metura.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Webinar-36x20.png 36w, https:\/\/www.erasmus-metura.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Webinar-48x27.png 48w, https:\/\/www.erasmus-metura.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Webinar.png 602w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1785 alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/www.erasmus-metura.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Webinar2-300x192.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"192\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.erasmus-metura.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Webinar2-300x192.png 300w, https:\/\/www.erasmus-metura.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Webinar2-24x15.png 24w, https:\/\/www.erasmus-metura.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Webinar2-36x23.png 36w, https:\/\/www.erasmus-metura.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Webinar2-48x31.png 48w, https:\/\/www.erasmus-metura.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Webinar2.png 602w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p><h3>Thrive Workshop<\/h3><p>On Saturday 10th of July 2021 Thrive opened their Trunkwell gardens to a number of adults with learning disabilities.
