Registered charity 1209478 · accounts filings on the Charity Commission register

Based in Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire, we deliver woodland based learning experiences to provide support for children, young people and adults who are experiencing disadvantage, and who have limited access to the natural world. Activities nurture confidence, communication, self esteem, emotional well-being, resilience, social skills, and develop a relationship with nature to support these.
