Ida Fabrizio

Ida previously spent 11 years setting up and managing an acre of permaculture garden in Hackney, London. There, she developed community food growing and wildlife gardening skills while honing her ability to connect diverse communities to nature, particularly in urban environments. Alongside her community work, she has trained NHS staff in nature connection and facilitated nature connection training for community leaders, helping them to incorporate nature and biodiversity into their garden projects.

During her work in the past two years with the RSPB in Edinburgh and Glasgow, Ida frequently visited Holy Isle for retreats, deepening her personal connection to the island. She is now delighted to offer this retreat as a space for nature connection and restoration.
