THE ESSENTIAL BUSHCRAFT COURSE
Our new 4 day £210 course is so popular we have stopped running this course for now. Please look at our 4 day course here: (4 day course)
The syllabus is almost identical and for a fraction of the price.
This course gives a firm grounding in the knowledge and skill required to pursue bushcraft to its greater potential. The syllabus has been designed to take the novice with no experience to a level of competence with which they could enjoy the outdoors environment and life with greater confidence.
The training of each bushcraft skill is carefully explained and demonstrated by nationally PGCE qualified teachers and experienced bushcraft instructors before you are given the chance to practice the skill under the watchful eye of the British bushcraft team.
At the end of the training course there is a test for those who wish to take it giving you the chance to put all that has been learnt into practice.
