What is the aim of the camp?

This camp aims to give parents/carers the opportunity to enjoy special ‘ring-fenced’ time with their child/children to enjoy a range of fun & challenging bushcraft and survival skills activities in a beautiful private woodland location on Dartmoor.

What will we be doing?

The syllabus this weekend sets the participants up with enjoyable, achievable but challenging tasks in a convivial camp atmosphere. You will be learning about the natural environment and a number of tools and skills you need to survive and thrive outdoors.
