Our Directors
Viki Hughes
Founder & Director
A mum of two with a passion for bringing people together. Even though I can be a bit reserved, I've pushed myself to step out of my comfort zone and achieve my goals. I love nature, exploring new places, and learning. I feel a deep calling to help others grow and flourish. I'm so proud of what I've accomplished and the amazing community we've built together. ​
My Story
​My journey started in 2022 when I realized the need for more mental health support for looked-after children. My own health scare and becoming a parent during the pandemic further fueled my desire to create a community focused on well-being and connection.
​
Inspired by my experiences volunteering at projects like Fen Zen and iFarm, I saw the positive impact these initiatives had on individuals and communities. I wanted to bring that same sense of support and connection to my own community.
​
Since becoming a parent, my perspective has shifted. I've realized the importance of community and the need to support each other as we raise our children. Together, we can create a safer, more connected world for future generations.

​
My passion for education is always present, particularly in regards to empowering our children with essential life skills. I truly believe in the importance of nurturing young minds and fostering a deeper connection with the natural world.
With a keen interest in conservation, gardening and cooking, I strive to in-still these invaluable skills in my own children, excited to guide them toward a more sustainable and fulfilling future. ​My enthusiasm for both learning and teaching extends beyond the limitations of traditional education, as I actively seek ways to enrich lives through hands-on experiences and exploration.
