Abstract
A documentary film that shares the success stories of people who have used nature in their recovery from substance use. This short film features people attending nature-based activities across different parts of Scotland. It also details their struggles with poor mental health, and how these programmes helped them cope in different ways. The film, created through a project led by the University of Stirling, shares stories not only of recovery, but also of friendship, as participants embraced nature as part of their daily routines. The film was funded by the Society for the Study of Addiction, The Salvation Army and the University of Stirling.
