The Wild Boys are coming! We have created a wonderful 4 day wild camping experience for boys aged 12-14.
Facilitated by our experienced team of youth workers, outdoor educators and volunteers we provide a 4-day outdoor camp for boys aged 12-14 in a beautiful wild space that will support them on a journey of exploration and self-discovery. Activities will include fire lighting, wild cooking, whittling, den-building, foraging, plant and animal ID, stone-age tool making, storytelling, wild walks and much more.
Through immersing ourselves in nature and developing skills in using natural materials our Wild Boys camp will create a space where young people will be safe and supported, yet will be given the freedom to explore the natural surroundings and encourage them to develop their ‘wild’ senses to tune in to the natural world around them. They will be given to opportunity to learn about different trees and flowers, taste different wild foods and listen and identify different animal sounds including birds, mammals and insects in both the day and night.
A key part of our camp is focused on what it means to be a boy in today’s society and also how spending time in nature improves our health and wellbeing. We will spend time cooking together, walking together, playing together and talking together and will together create a unique space which as well as providing lots of activity, also allows for moments of self-reflection and support with adjusting to and preparing for the period of adolescence into which our tribe of Wild Boys are entering.
