Creative nature awareness courses for all ages and abilities!

Aims and Objectives:

To empower, encourage and inspire people of all ages, to use various outdoor skills and techniques which will confidently enable them to enjoy and be more aware of the natural environment and its resources, with a sustainable approach.

We understand that people absorb information when they are enjoying themselves, and because of this, we teach with humour and fun!


Course activities include:

Shelter building, Water purification, Fire lighting techniques and safety,
Peripheral vision and sensory/present-moment awareness,
Navigation & Signalling, Tracking, Forest & Tool Skills,
Wild Food & Cooking, Tree ID, Natural cordage,
Stargazing, Sun dial, Crafts, Games and more…

Our courses cater for 1:1 programs, school & youth groups, companies & corporate team building events, children's birthday parties, stag and hen parties, and support for vision quest and solitude/hiking adventures. 

We usually run courses in Hampshire (the Sustainability Centre) or Devon, however, should you wish us to teach nearby, please contact us below.  Also, email to ask for tailor-made days, ideas, availability & prices, and to purchase wooden handled Firesteels (£7.50) and Wild Food Calendars (£1.50) + p&p.
