Hi Rebecca!
I would suggest taking a look at the Scottish Fair Trade Forum if you aren't sure where to start (http://www.scottishfairtradeforum.org.uk/).They actually have a 'Campaigner Handbook', which looks like it could do with a social marketing update... But more resources in the back at least
http://www.scottishfairtradeforum.org.uk/
Unfortunately I don't have any contacts there, but there is a 'Community Engagement Cordinator' listed on the website who you could try contacting.
Good luck!

In Canada, the David Suzuki Foundation is running the "30 x 30 Challenge" through the month of May. For the Challenge, participants commit to spending 30 minutes outside for 30 days. On their website they have this infographic (sources at the bottom), outlining the benefits of spending time in nature: http://30x30.davidsuzuki.org/whats-in-it-for-you-2/
They are also doing there own study on the effects that the Challenge will have on individuals. People do a survey at the beginning of the month and there will be another survey when the month is over. It may be worthwhile to contact someone there for their findings.
