Forest skills

LEARN NEW SKILLS

We are lucky to have a perfect venue to teach primitive bushcraft and forest skills. Set in 150 acres of woodland and greenspace we are also able to venture out and explore the area or stay within the safe environment of Baggeridge Adventure where we can teach skills such as fire making, den building, pioneering, backwood cooking and woodland arts and craft. We also plan to deliver courses to all ages when we get specialists in to teach and inspire. Watch this space.

OUR APPROACH

Our activities are very interactive, relaxing and informative and we have a dedicated space onsite to deliver our courses. We seek to encourage, motivate, engage and inspire through positive outdoor experiences. It’s not just about the skills, it’s about the environment – active outdoor learning for everyone

KEY SKILLS

Our instructors do not profess to be experts but we know enough to ensure that you leave us having had a brilliant time when you have learnt some great new skills and made some new friends. We plan to run overnight courses in the near future when we get the experts in.

PROGRAMMES

Our forest skills can form part of your visit if you are an organisation, just talk to us about what you want when you make your booking. For the general public we will be looking to run forest skill sessions as part of our adventure club programmes. Look out for more info on our events page.

THE CHALLENGES

Can you start a fire from scratch with fire steels and natural resources? Can you build a shelter using natural materials, can you cook a nutritious meal using ingredients and herbs from the forest? Remember we can provide you with help and support, the rest is up too you and your team

Even individuals lacking in some confidence and not as willing as others to get involved, engaged and got a huge amount from the training. We had great fun!
