Welcome to ‘Rural Voices - Brunch and Brain Food’, our new series of talks served alongside a full English breakfast!

This month’s speaker is the High Sheriff of Wiltshire, Dr Olivia Chapple. Olivia is the founder of Horatio’s Garden, an incredible charity which nurtures the wellbeing of people after spinal injury in beautiful, vibrant sanctuaries within the heart of NHS spinal injury centres. Leading designers create the accessible gardens where the charity’s team, alongside volunteers and creatives, care for people and plants alike. At this talk, Olivia will talk about the importance of the link between nature and wellbeing, how it has driven her work with Horatio’s Garden and how it guides her activities as High Sheriff of Wiltshire.
