Overview

AS SEEN ON BBC ONE'S THE ONE SHOW Brought together by a shared love of birding, Ollie Olanipekun and Nadeem Perera set up Flock Together to challenge the underrepresentation of people of colour in nature. What started as a walk in their local park instantly sparked a global outdoors movement centred on community and activism through nature. With a vision to change the world from the outside in, Outsiders is a memoir and manifesto about the power of nature to heal, inspire and unite us in the face of prejudice and inequity. Praise for Flock Together 'A birdwatching collective is not only encouraging people of colour to explore green spaces, but also reconcile it with their sense of identity' - Telegraph '...inspiring young people to discover the wildlife on their doorsteps' - The Times 'During challenging times, what could be more rewarding?' - Vogue
