About your mentors
Venturewood
Education that grows outdoors
Venturewood is the outdoor education arm of The Petty Pool Trust, a charity supporting young people with learning disabilities and difficulties. We offer inclusive, adventure-based learning that builds confidence, independence, and life skills in a safe, supportive environment. Our programmes run across two sites: our long-established Cheshire woodland centre in Sandiway, and a new location at Delamere Forest in partnership with Forestry England. We offer a mix of activities suitable for all ages and abilities. Whether it’s Forest School, seasonal workshops, wellbeing sessions, school visits, residentials, or community sessions, Venturewood provides high-quality outdoor learning experiences that inspire personal growth through challenge and connection with nature.
Rachel
Outdoor Instructor
Hi, I'm Rachel. I have been an instructor for over 6 years facilitating forest activities such as bushcraft, orienteering, and team games, and adventure sports such as sailing, climbing, paddling, and archery. My perfect Sunday would be a sunrise hike and lake swim, checking on my beehives, and relaxing on hammocks by a campfire as the sun sets. In my spare time I like to crochet, sew, paint and build to create anything I need or make gifts for people.
Ella
Deputy Manager Outdoor Education Venturewood
I hope my forest school leader experience, and passion for outdoor education, will encourage more people to come on a journey with Venturewood. I feel we can grow by sharing skills and mindset together. Im here to inspire others and help them reconnect with nature in a meaningful and creative way. I love hands-on woodcrafts, bushcraft and cooking on the campfire. Come let's have a great day out in the woods.
What to Wear
Please make sure your child wears suitable clothing as we will be out in the forest!

Cancellation Policy
No refunds are given except in the case of a cancellation by the Mentor.

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.
