Hidden Valley Bushcraft

Our partnership with Woodland Warrior Programme Hidden Valley Bushcraft forms part of a growing national network of nature-based wellbeing support for the blue light community.

Sometimes stepping away from pressure starts with stepping outdoors. Through woodland activity, bushcraft and shared experience, participants build connection, confidence and resilience in supportive outdoor environments.

Met this crazy trio today as I was out up Swaledale taking photos. They are doing the Coast to Coast as their annual Woodland Warrior "Big Winter Yomp" They had just made it to Keld, having completed around half of the 315 mile trail, battling through waist high snow on the tops of Ravenseat Moor. Nick Goldsmith and Karl Hodder (both to the left) are former Royal Marines, both being injured in overseas action, are doing the challenge and raising money for the Woodland Warrior Programme, which helps promote mental wellbeing through theropeutic outdoor nature based activities such as Bushcraft.

"One of the main reasons I became a police officer was because I wanted to help as many people as I could, and I was keen - so I often found myself saying yes to a lot of things."

Budding Bee-Keepers 🐝 and yummy honey 🍯

If you would like to get involved in our new bee hive project based at our small holding in Winford (BS40 8DP) please complete the form via the link below. https://forms.gle/LvtgJFXCR9kJhwkZ6

This is open to all members of our local community (you must be a resident of North Somerset or surrounding counties so BANES / Bristol etc would qualify).

There will be a number of volunteer days where you can get involved in building hives and frames, sowing a new wild flower meadow and learning about bee hive management. There will also be an opportunity take part in the annual honey harvest.
You can get involved in as much or as little as you like in this project. All kit and equipment will be provided and there is no cost for you to attend.

Children need to be 12+ and must be accompanied by an adult. More details will be sent to you once we have confirmed your space on the project.

This project is funded by the UK Government through the Rural England Prosperity Fund and we are very grateful to North Somerset Council for providing the funding for this project.
It is run by The Woodland Warrior Programme but you do not need to be a veteran or member of the blue light community to attend.

We have space for 20 people on this project so please do spread the word for this exciting new project.
