BASIC BUSHCRAFT - including fire making, water and shelter.

This programme focuses on some of the key areas of outdoor living perceived by many as survival skills. Although the knowledge shared here explores the principles of dealing with emergency situations it can also be used to enhance any trip into the outdoors. We take a hands on approach in our teaching and you will have plenty of opportunity to create fire using several different methods. We will also examine methods of making our water safe and have chance to explore some fundamental shelter designs		 3hrs Adults Kids 8+ 14 Adults:

FIRE BY FRICTION - includes tools use, making and using own bow drill set.

This programme takes the fire making process much further back in history exploring perhaps the oldest method every used by human kind to utilise fire. You will be involved in the construction of the equipment and be thoroughly taught the correct technique to allow for success. Time permitting you may also have a chance to build your friction fire sufficiently to cook a tasty treat on.		 3hrs Adults Kids 8+ 14 Adults:

WILD FOOD FORAGE - identification and tasting

At one time we all relied heavily on the landscape to provide our basic needs including food. Much of this legacy still survives in fields, woods and hedgerows. Join us as we identify, gather, cook and taste some of the wealth of species available as food and medicine. This is a great way to reconnect with the landscape and to enhance anytime spent in the great outdoors		 3hrs Adults Kids 8+ 14 Adults:

NATURE RAMBLE - bat detecting and tracks and signs

This programme takes the form of a gentle stroll through the forest finding sign of the creature that share this environment. We will be looking for tracks and feeding sign trying to identify bats and learning about trees and plants and their uses. This course is likely to be very variable as we are never quite sure what we will find!		 1.5hrs Adults Kids 8+ 14 Adults:
