We are a small team of Veterans on a mission to deliver wilderness based retreats, residential courses and workshops for those still serving in the military and veterans .
We use the great outdoors and specifically a ancient woodland on the edge of the Cairngorms national park as our area of operations and focus on skills sessions such as bushcraft, foraging, and wilderness survival all of which are taught at a relaxed pace with plenty of opportunity for those attending to relax and simply have a break from the norm. Each meal is prepared for by the group and we try to incorporate a team, troop, section even tribe mentality so everyone gets involved.
We want Veterans to have the opportunity to learn new skills, meet like minded individuals and enjoy being part of a team again.
There are no charges for these workshops but spaces are limited so please ensure you can attend.
Specific to our Emergency services or care operations. Relax and recuperate within the woodland, these workshops can be for individuals or larger groups. We promote the positive benefits of spending time outdoors learning, achieving and slowing the pace of life down.
