Welcome to the Soul Trail Family!
From left to right: Leanne, Ruth, Michael and Melissa.
Leanne, our founder, started Soul Trail during the pandemic whilst working as a mental health lead for the Fire Service. Being in nature made such a difference to her mental health - and created a great way to connect with family outdoors.
Leanne noticed how few people looked like her and her family outdoors, and so Soul Trail was born.
Soul Trail exists to provide a welcoming space for people of colour in nature, weaving mindfulness, creativity and joy into all we do.
Our mission is to ensure that everyone feels they belong outdoors.
