Growing Together Through Exploring, Discovery, Survival Skills and Conservation
Nestling in a lovely rural setting in Shipley Country Park, Nurture Within Nature offers the perfect environment for young people to discover and appreciate nature. Nurture Within Nature uses the woodland environment and the outdoors to offer young people a place to learn, feel safe and build their emotional resilience. We have school groups who may be undertaking a vocational qualification, small groups who might need nurture and gentler approaches and young people who can only work one to one with our staff. We adapt our approaches to ensure all young people can succeed. Our aim is to provide stability and direction through any tough time for young people and their families.
We deliver the John Muir Awards and also offer Forest school experiences by a fully qualified and experienced practitioner.

Forest School
Forest School is a child-centred inspirational learning process, that offers opportunities for holistic growth through regular sessions. It is a long-term program that supports play, exploration and supported risk taking. It develops confidence and self-esteem through learner inspired, hands-on experiences in a natural setting.
School Based
We are a freelance practice that can also deliver Forest school in your setting. We can also work with students to explore sustainable practices and biodiversity then create spaces within your grounds based on these ideas.
