Our workshops provide a great introduction to core skills and are suitable for both beginners and those with more outdoor experience. All our workshops and courses are activity led and follow the EDI format – Explanation, Demonstration, and Imitation

Our aim is to provide a quality, low cost local alternative to UK Bushcraft & Survival courses, teaching real skills for the outdoors and preparing students for emergency situations. We promote a leave no trace attitude to being in the outdoors. By teaching people to enjoy and appreciate the outdoors we hope they will become advocates for preserving our immeasurable natural resources.
