About your mentor
Sharon
Forest School Leader and Founder.
My passion to become a Forest School Leader was ignited through my work in horticulture with young adults with learning disabilities. Once introduced to the Forest School concept I was immediately drawn to the ethos that puts the individual firmly at the centre of the process and the benefits that this brings. Led by my passion and determination I qualified as a Forest School Leader in 2018 and have run groups at Hilsea Lines since then. In 2021 I co-founded Portsmouth Forest School CIC with my partner Alison. Our mission is to get people of all ages outside enjoying the natural world and observing the flora and fauna on their doorstep. I decided to become a social enterprise because I want everybody to enjoy the benefits that nature can offer.
