"The first session we could clearly see how much he enjoyed it even though he wouldn’t admit it. Over the weeks he has come home so happy and relaxed after Bushcraft and told us everything (in detail!) about the sessions and what he has been making.
He enjoyed the fire and treasure hunt (sessions) and looks forward to the snacks/treats! He has formed a lovely relationship with the instruction team and the impact of this on his confidence and self-esteem is clearly visible. He has never spoken so much about a group before - it’s amazing to hear how much he enjoys it and the things he has been doing.
On a personal note - What you have created for our children I wish for every school to have - A place of safety and connection. A true male role model for our boys outside the classroom.”

"The content was fascinating and the way you weaved history into knife skills, game preparation, fire starting, foraging and cordage was super engaging with time melting away."
Fabulous family of four for weekend bushcraft experience.
“My son hasn’t stopped talking about it. I woke up the next morning and usually find him on his iPad, but he was downstairs making twine with the extra material you gave him.”
