Forest Fun at Forde – Survival Skills

This Summer, join us for an outdoor adventure in the wilds of Forde Abbey, learning new skills, trying out new crafts and enjoying some naturally inspired hands-on fun.

Teaching a variety of forest school skills, these activity mornings will take place in a group setting. Booking is essential so do book a space well in advance to avoid disappointment.

Each session will take place between 10am – 1pm, and cost £10 per head. This will include entry to the gardens throughout the day. Please note that children must be accompanied by an adult (with a ticket to the gardens) and there will be a range of activities to suit all ages.
