    Hi Karina I'd definitely be interested in more info on the events you organise and like Ben, would appreciate any info, or nudges toward other rangers who may have info, about forestry events in other areas. I'll PM you my email address.

    Oh and Welcome to the forum

    These 'courses' aren't cheap though, are they?

    I was very enthusiastic about Karina's post when I read it this morning but when I looked at the web site and saw the prices quoted I was very surprised. Looks like it may be attractive to some with very deep pockets but too rich for me I'm afraid.

    Hi there,

    Just thought I should point out that the prices on the web page for a private booking are for a group of up to 15 people - I realise now that this isn't that clear. Sorry about that. £195 for a day of activities split between 15 people is £13 each for a day - hopefully affordable for lots of people.

    Our public events are £12.50 for a day event or £45 for an overnight stay - this includes dinner and breakfast.

    Thanks for pointing out that it isn't that clear - I'll get it sorted ASAP.

    Cheers,

    Karina

    That's far clearer Karina, thanks for clearing that up. I wonder if there could be any discount for Natural Bushcraft members??

    I'm sure that something can be done for NBC members. After all, there are 1,000s of us out there with a passion for woodland in general and bushcraft in particular. Or, should that be the other way round?

    Putting my serious hat on for a moment, and putting aside any potential discounting; this could be an excellent opportunity for folks who enjoy the outdoors, to nurture a good relationship with people who work for an organisation that manages a lot of outdoor spaces. And a positive relationship between us, may have a positive baring on any future discussions regarding access to land for responsible wild camping.

    Or not.

    Discounts are always good
