The theme of Mental Health Awareness Week this year is nature.
Like so many of you out there, many of us at FutureYou Cambridge have been using the lockdowns as an opportunity to explore the great outdoors. Whether it's nipping out at lunch time for a stroll around the block or a longer adventure at the weekends, being outdoors has helped to alleviate feelings of stress, worry, anxiety or low mood.
The pandemic has been tough and relentless for us all. But taking time out in nature has provided us with an escape from screens and something to do, especially when we've not been able to see friends and family.
Here are a few of the team's favourite snaps taken in Cambridgeshire, Suffolk, Essex, the Peak District and Hertfordshire.
Let us know how spending time in nature has helped you.
