Green Time - The Land of Butterflies focuses on nature and the importance of looking after it within our local community,. It covers butterfly conservation and the need to make us all aware of protecting insects such as butterflies and ladybirds as in our carnival feature, .

Integrating this project into our wider Green Time Project lets us bring people together from different backgrounds and culture.

The project uses crafts to promote and enhance people's emotional well-being, mental health, self-confidence, self-esteem, team working skills and provides a sense of belonging and togetherness.

Green Time - The Land of Butterflies is delighted to be taking part in the oldest carnival in the country Ryde Carnival 2022.
