What we'll do
Young people will take part in hands-on, active sessions such as shelter building, fire lighting, team challenges, nature walks, and tool-based tasks. These activities promote movement, coordination, and teamwork, all within an outdoor environment. Our bushcraft programme is packed with enriching activities that build skills, confidence, and curiosity. Young people will learn fire lighting, shelter building, outdoor cooking, knot tying, and basic survival techniques, all while developing teamwork, problem-solving, and resilience in a natural setting.
