Forest Child CIC

Forest Child CIC has continued to work with community groups, charities and other CIC’s to provide Forest School and wellbeing sessions in nature with vulnerable families and groups. I have worked extensively with the women’s refuge network, Next Link, to provide family fun days and peer group support sessions for families and women who are survivors of domestic abuse. From the feedback from participants and support workers these sessions have been credited with having an important role in recovery from trauma and hugely enjoyed by the participants. The sessions with the Dame Emily Park Project which is a community garden ran by volunteers provide local families with free Forest School sessions. Parents have reported an increase in wellbeing and a connection with their community.
