You will be welcomed to the woods by one of our Practitioners, Ros, Bee, Louise or Michelle, who will show you where everything you need is including cosy spaces, toilets and food. When everyone has arrived we will introduce the session including safety and activities. We will cook a hot and healthy Brunch (late breakfast and early lunch) over the fire, enjoying sharing food together. When it is time to get ready for home we will tidy the woods, collect our belongings and greet your parent / carer.

About your mentor
Greenwood Growth CIC
Immerse, discover, connect in nature.
We work in community woodland offering compassionate support to people focused on connection to self, others and a belonging to the natural world. Over half the population lives within six miles of a forest or small woodland and we think most people don’t visit them at all, or just pass through. Greenwood Growth makes your local space fun, safe and inviting places to spend time. We want to get you amongst the trees to begin exploring and to feel the positive effect on health and well-being for yourself.

Cancellation Policy
Free bookings do not require refunds but as places are limited, please cancel if you cannot attend so that your place can be offered to someone else.

My experience consists of a leisure activity, on a specific date(s), and therefore the 14-day ‘cooling off period’ under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 does not apply.
