Our mission is to build inclusive communities that support personal growth, developing a connection in nature and offering opportunities for outdoor experiences using the Forest School ethos. To fulfil our mission we: -use the outdoors and nature to provide therapeutic experiences for young people in primary and secondary schools by providing an alternative therapeutic education pathway for their individual personal development -use the combination of learning in nature and being in nature to engage children, young people and adults and develop participant’s self-esteem, nurture personal development and support intrinsic motivation for community cohesiveness. - use the outdoors and nature to improve the health and wellbeing of the community - run sessions to connect children, young people and adults with their local outdoors spaces to improve accessibility of Therapeutic Outdoor Nature Education within the community By delivering on these mission aims we hope that all learners will be supported in developing transferrable life skills and becoming stewards of our planet.
