It’s part of how the work happens… The woodland brings space, movement, change and challenge into every session. Weather shifts, seasons turn and there is always something to notice, explore and respond to. There’s less emphasis on sitting still or talking face-to-face, and more opportunity to engage through movement, activity and the world around them. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6134c11f4ecd077a89db29fb/1630954503243-UEZ7UAVYJHL53UO9G6A9/DSC_0024+%281%29.jpg Our Approach - Practical activity has a purpose… There’s always something real to do. Put up a shelter. Prepare and light a fire. Cook a meal. Work with tools. Look after camp. Each activity brings opportunities to solve problems, make decisions, take responsibility and develop practical skills. Adapting, persevering, and trying another way are all part of the experience. Doing something for yourself feels different from being told you can do it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6134c11f4ecd077a89db29fb/1630954468143-H632G71OGFDL0CAFP17E/DSC_0703.jpg Our Approach - Mentoring ties it all together… We don’t stop the activities for mentoring. It happens while we explore, cook, chop wood, work on a project together, or while sat around the fire with a brew. Having something else to focus on can take the pressure out of communication. There’s room for everyday chat, humour and silence, as well as reflection and more meaningful conversations when they arise. Sometimes it’s easier to talk when talking isn’t the only thing you’re there to do. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6134c11f4ecd077a89db29fb/1630954650921-6BB3PCPV30LMZNKCXWIK/DSC_0945.jpg Our Approach - Real experiences, real development… A fire that won’t light is a problem to solve Cooking a meal brings responsibility Mastering a new skill brings confidence Doing something without help develops independence Working through setbacks builds perseverance Making real choices develops decision-making Being trusted with a task builds self-belief These qualities grow through experience, with opportunities to practise, succeed, struggle, adapt and try again. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6134c11f4ecd077a89db29fb/1630954875466-TTPML7GHQJFK3LO2GPZM/DSC_0013+%283%29.jpg Our Approach - Low pressure, real challenge… There’s no pressure to perform, talk on demand or prove progress. Young people have time to settle in, find their own rhythm and engage in ways that work for them. Low pressure doesn’t mean low expectations. There are still new experiences, problems to solve, responsibilities to take on and things that won’t always work first time. We adjust the pace, support and level of challenge around the individual, stepping in when needed and stepping back when not https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6134c11f4ecd077a89db29fb/1630954809602-FZ1XP279NQH39CQWA4M5/DSC_0487.jpg Our Approach - No two sessions look the same… What works for one young person may not work for another. Interests, confidence, energy and what is happening in their wider life can all shape a session. We keep the same approach, while adjusting the activity, pace, challenge and level of support around the individual. The aim isn’t to fit a young person into the programme. It’s to make the programme work for the young person. https://www.canopyandcampfires.com/wcore-programmes daily 0.75 2025-08-11 https://www.canopyandcampfires.com/wild-woods-workshops daily 0.75 2025-08-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6134c11f4ecd077a89db29fb/102b298b-2993-4cb1-bd58-ec8188796e57/DSC_0839+%281%29.jpg Wild Woods Workshops - Wild Cooking Workshops Learn to prepare and cook delicious food over an open fire.
