Raven Bushcraft - NEW local bushcraft courses.

I have just been hearing about this wonderful new local initiative which I feel might be of interest to you. A locally-run course in bushcraft.

This inspirational bushcraft course will help you learn the skills of your ancestors, how to survive and thrive in a natural environment, including foraging, firecraft, shelter building, and natural navigation.

Run by Simon Warr and Chris Morris this course will appeal to anyone keen to foster independence, and learn how to care for self and others in challenging situations. Preparedness for emergencies! Skills that could benefit us all in this unpredictable world and anyway will make fascinating learning for everyone with an interest in the naturaL world. highly recommended!
