Nafisa Gudal leads NatureWithNafisa, an organisation focusing on bringing a community of fellow Muslim women together through monthly hikes, bespoke retreats and nature-based healing spaces.

Youngwilders are a Youth-led nature recovery group, partnering with landowners and running nature recovery projects across the UK.
