Extreme Survival Weekend
18th-19th May 2019
The Team at Norman Court believe that it is a good idea to have a few survival skills up your sleeve so that you could use them if needed. In todays society, we are very dependent on technology but this is often at the expense of our primal instinct and hunter gatherer skills.
So would you survive a night in the wilderness? Why not spend the weekend getting to know the outdoors and learning what it takes to survive without any of your home comforts? Our experienced Bushcraft instructor will teach you fundamental survival techniques such as how to light a fire; build your own shelter; purify water; and how to catch your own meal.
This is a safe, fun, hands on experience conducted entirely in the wilderness. You will develop skills in navigation so that you can efficiently find your way around the countryside. You will be shown how to make natural cordage from plant fibres, construct traps and snares, and learn how to prepare rabbit, fish and birds for consumption. As the sun sets on Norman Court, you will be sleeping in the shelter you have built for yourself and in the morning you’ll be sharpening knives and discovering dozens of edible plants that you can try for yourself. This is the ultimate experience for anyone who loves the outdoors and a fun course for anyone who likes an adventure.
