What they’re saying…
“Taking part in Wild Ways both as an after school activity and on a week long course in the summer holidays has been the most positive experience for my son. The benefits of spending time in nature and the learning from the engaging, practical activities have been so apparent, not least in relation to confidence and self esteem. Thank you Wild Ways for running such thoughtfully designed activities in such a lovely manner – you are making a real difference.”
