Step into the beautiful surroundings of Jays Wood, (Boughton-under-Blean), this summer and reconnect with nature through a hands-on, confidence-building series of four relaxed and welcoming woodland sessions.
Designed to bring people of all ages together, these Friday evenings offer the perfect opportunity to explore a variety of outdoor skills, nature-based crafts, and group activities that deepen your connection with the woodland—and with each other. Whether you’re new to bushcraft, love spending time outdoors, or simply want to slow down and enjoy the calming rhythm of the forest, each session invites you to build real woodland skills, meet new people, and embrace creativity in a supportive and fun environment.
No previous experience is needed—just bring your curiosity and a willingness to get stuck in! About this event Get hands-on and dive into the world of bushcraft!
This session is a brilliant introduction to working with tools and learning practical outdoor skills in a safe and supportive setting. Whether you're trying something new or sharpening existing skills, you’ll have the chance to challenge yourself and build focus through calm, purposeful activities. It’s all about slowing down, working with your hands, and discovering just how much you can do with a few simple tools and the woodland around you.
