Water Resources East

London

As a membership organisation, our Articles of Association detail two tiers of membership, namely Primary Funding Members (PFMs) who form the Board of Directors and Standard Members who form the Strategic Advisory Group. Whilst WRE is independent of any controlling interest by individual organisations or sectors, it is dependent upon those organisations represented on its Board of Directors to resource its day to day running. Those organisations represented on the Board must make meaningful contributions that collectively fund or otherwise facilitate WRE’s function. These can be a direct financial contribution of a minimum 3% of the day to day operational costs for the organisation (salaries, accommodation and expenses), or an ‘in kind’ contribution which is equivalent to a 3% direct contribution. This can take the form, for example, of the provision of a support service which reduces the overall operational cost of the business. For organisations wishing to make donations ‘in kind’, the Board of Directors in place at that time will decide whether the contribution is sufficient for an organisation to become a PFM. PFMs will nominate a named individual within their organisation for appointment as a non-executive director of the company. Contributions will be disclosed to the other PFMs. THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS SPECIFIC DUTIES INCLUDE: Setting of the overall strategy and vision for Water Resources East. Appointment of the Chairman and the Managing Director Remuneration policy for the Chairman, Managing Director and Technical Director Approval of the annual budget and the Business Plan Appointment of new Directors and approval of applications from Standard Members. Appointment of sub-committees and specific working groups, and approval of resources for the delivery of key workstreams.

We offer online courses in Connecting with Nature for Wellbeing. To be kept informed of future course dates, please register interest here [https://feelgood-forest-bathing.com/register-interest]. Forest Bathing is a modern approach to the ancient Japanese art of Shinrin Yoku - connecting with nature through our senses. We approach nature, we slow down, and we pay close attention to what we are noticing. Research shows it has remarkable benefits for both our mind and body.  It’s rapidly becoming popular worldwide as a powerful way to reduce stress, improve our wellbeing, and to rediscover our relationship with the natural world. Best of all, it’s lots of fun! Our interactive courses offer students weekly activities to practice in their neighbourhood. They can share the journey with their classmates in our online community, and are fully supported by the course creator. By the end of the course they will be independent Forest Bathers, with all the skills they need to continue connecting with nature, and developing their own unique relationship with the natural world, no matter where they live. The course is accredited for CPD (Continuing Professional Development). Students can earn professional Learning Credits, whilst learning the core skills of nature connection to adapt and apply in their own field of work, including education, social and community work, health care and mental health support.
