There are occasional meets which have been organised by John Scrivy though not for a while. I missed the last one but hope to get to the next!
Where 'bouts in Essex are you?

I, unfortunately live just outside Braintree, though it's not too bad (honestly!)
As I work all across London, I feel quite lucky that I can get into the greenstuff with a 5 minute walk though not for any 'crafting!
I am trying to negotiate with a landowner I knew years ago for access to his woods, may not come to anything but no harm in trying!

I'm not from round that way myself but I know that John Scrivy, Pablo and Paganwolf were trying to sort out an Essex meet out a while back - might be worth getting in touch with them

Also, if anyone is in the area this weekend there's a basic bushcraft course at Hadleigh castle, just do a quick google and it will come up.

I don't know if there's any places left, but it looks pretty good

Keep an eye on places like the Essex Wildlife Trust website.

I saw a list of events (sure it was there!) that listed bushcraft courses at a number of places around Essex through out the year.

If I come across anything again, I'll post up.

I know the owner of a large wood near Billericay it is total private land and half of it is used for the Skirmish essex paintball and airsoft site. the other half is not used for anything. Was thinking of asking to use it for training for my ACF detachment aswell. If enough people are up for it I can approach him and ask, he may want a small fee for the use as on the site he does have running water and toilets (if thats what you want) plus total CCTV for the site and carpark so cars left will be secure. PM me or reply here.
