Our Story
Created by a small team of passionate ecologists and technologists, the Natural Neighbours app is here to help everyone play a part in bringing nature back into urban living.
Introducing our partner charity, Natural Neighbours CIO
We are proud to support the work of Natural Neighbours, a charitably incorporated organisation (CIO), in its mission to bring nature into the everyday lives of urban communities. Regular experience of wildlife can bring huge benefits to individual and community health and wellbeing. Sadly many communities live in nature-deprived areas with no such opportunity. Natural Neighbours CIO is working to change that.
