What we’re about
This group is for outdoorsy people and those looking for micro-adventures in the wild! We'll be running foraging walks, bushcraft and survival courses, and wilderness hikes around the UK. Perfect for anyone with a reasonable fitness level who wants to get out and explore, meet like-minded people and learn some new skills along the way.

See all- ✅ Big Tech, Governments & Hackers Are Tracking You – Fight Back!Link visible for attendees
Hello,
Everything you do online is being tracked, recorded, and sold.
📞 Your phone calls and messages – monitored.
📧 Your emails – stored forever.
🌍 Your internet browsing – sold to the highest bidder.
Governments, Big Business, and even foreign nations like China and Russia are collecting your data right now – and no one is coming to save you.
But here’s the truth… You CAN take back your privacy – if you act NOW.
🚘 Did you know? The moment you connect your phone to your car, it steals all your data and sells it. I’ll show you how to stop it.
💳 Every purchase you make? Your bank, Visa, and Mastercard are selling that data too.
You have no privacy unless you take control. And I’ll show you exactly how.
This FREE webinar will teach you:
✅ How to protect your identity from mass surveillance
✅ How to block corporations from selling your data
✅ How to stop your car, phone, and smart devices from spying on you
⚠️ Your privacy is already gone – unless you fight back.
Join me for this one-time FREE event and learn how to disappear from prying eyes.

Get nerdy with me! Learn to identify trees, fungi and plants throughout the seasons.
We'll be looking at seasonal fungi and plants in winter, spring, summer, and autumn. It's an easy walk around some lovely woodland, although it can be muddy so wellies or boots are recommended. No previous experience or plant/fungi knowledge is necessary. Open to all ages, and dogs too!
This is the winter edition, which will cover:
🍄Plants & Fungi
- We'll look at any seasonal plants and fungi we come across, including their edible and medicinal value, and bushcraft uses.
- We'll explore the link between mushrooms and trees (and other plants) and how this helps with foraging!
🌳Tree Identification
- Learn to ID common, widespread, native trees and shrubs.
- We’ll look at key identifying features on trees - not just the leaves!
- You’ll learn about the history and folklore of the trees, and their uses in bushcraft and wilderness survival.
- We’ll talk about trees for food, medicine, cordage, fire, and their importance in the ecosystem.
