Hi all, if your looking for Bushcraft in lincolnshire, there are a few places doing it, but Lincolnshire Wildlife Trust at The Whisby Education Centre near Lincoln are running some realy cool stuff,
For youngsters (8-16) they run a 'Bushcraft club' six time a year, the group meet every couple of months and have a go at tracking, fire lighting, shelter buildng, natural navigation etc. You have to pre book as it is realy popular and they do limit numbers, they charge for the session but can't remember how much, but the instructors are realy good, as they spend a lot of time working with kids doing this type of stuff. (they were featured on the kids programme 'Live N Deadly' last year when they took a group of kids out to spend a night out in the woods)
Also this year they are running an adults two day course in September (24th/25th ) as they had such a request from the parents of the kids to do something for the grown ups they have put a beginners bushcraft course on covering the basics of firelighting, tracking, tool use, water etc which looks realy good which i'm looking to book on to,
But the Lincolnshire Wildlife Trust also run courses on various ID workshops, Practical conservation days, willow weaving, coppicing etc so i've gained some realy good experience from these to help with bushcraft. check out there events on www.lincstrust.co.uk or e-mail the education centre on whisbyeducation@lincstrust.co.uk or phone 01522 696926 for dates costings etc
Happy bushcrafting
