Forest school training

We offer Forest School Leader (Level 3) training at our beautiful woodland centre, where we are passionate about outdoor learning and providing high quality training. Forest School is an approach to learning in the outdoors, which offers children, young people and adults regular opportunities to achieve and develop confidence through hands-on learning experiences in the natural environment. Come on one of our Taster Days to find out more about Forest School. We also offer CPD courses for Forest School Leaders.

YOUTH MENTAL HEALTH FIRST AID Youth Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) is an internationally recognised training course for anyone who works with, lives with or supports young people aged 8-18. We train the adults in a young person’s life to have the skills and confidence to step in, offer first aid and guide them towards the support they need. In doing so, they can speed up a young person’s recovery, stop issues from developing into a crisis, and ultimately save lives. |
