Introducing Wrenaissance CIC

Hello, from Wrenaissance

Wrenaissance is a new Community Interest Company with a simple idea:

More people should have the opportunity to connect with nature.

Not just people with big gardens.
Not just confident walkers.
Not just people who can afford expensive wellbeing experiences.

We want to create spaces where people can spend time outdoors, learn, move, connect and simply be — while helping care for the natural spaces around us.

We’re starting in Greenwich, bringing together nature-based activities, practitioners, volunteers and community organisations.

Our vision is bigger than the activities we offer ourselves. We want to create opportunities for other people to share their skills too, and eventually create physical spaces where nature and community can thrive together.

Why Wrenaissance?

The wren is tiny, but mighty. In Celtic and wider European folklore it is known as the king of the birds — a reminder that size isn’t everything, and that ingenuity and resourcefulness can be powerful things. It also has deep roots in Irish tradition as the “druid bird”.

Renaissance means renewal — a rebirth, a rediscovery.

Put the two together and you have Wrenaissance: our idea of finding renewal through reconnecting with nature, discovering new possibilities and perhaps rediscovering something of ourselves along the way.

We’re only just beginning, but we’re excited about what might grow.

Wrenaissance — Renewal through nature. 🌱
