Many people across Ireland give so much of themselves: carers, volunteers, community organisers, activists, and those living with chronic illness. Others are navigating burnout, stress, or mental health challenges. These are the people who hold up their families, their communities, and often the world around them… yet rarely get the chance to pause and refill their own cup.

The Fill Your Cup Programme exists to change that.

We offer free nature‑connection experiences, including restorative 2.5‑hour forest bathing walks, to individuals who would deeply benefit from time in nature but may not have the financial means to access it. Our aim is simple: to make moments of calm, grounding, and renewal available to those who need them most.

To make this possible, we raise funds through donation‑based events and our Buy Me a Coffee page.
Every contribution, big or small, goes directly towards creating fully funded nature‑connection sessions.

Once enough funds are gathered, we open places for people who could truly use a breath of fresh air, a gentle reset, and a chance to reconnect with themselves through nature.

By supporting the Fill Your Cup Programme, you help us offer care to the people who are so often caring for everyone else.

If you know someone who could benefit from our Fill Your Cup Programme, you can nominate them by sending us an email with their contact details and the reason for nominating them.

With Beneath the Canopy, Orlagh and Cat are on a heartfelt mission to connect people with nature in an easy and accessible way. And maybe even more important, welcoming for all.

Through our free podcast and affordable e-booklets, we open up nature's stories, knowledge, and inspiration to anyone who wants to explore, no matter their financial situation. It’s our way of making sure that everyone can enjoy the benefits of the natural world, no matter where they live or what’s in their wallet.

Producing these resources comes with costs, and your support means the world to us. If you’d like to help us keep this project thriving, consider buying us a coffee. Every donation goes directly toward creating more content and keeping our offerings open and affordable.

Visit our Buy Me a Coffee page and donate today! Your support helps us keep nature within reach for everyone.

Let’s keep growing this canopy... together.
