Forest School Consultancy Services

Do you need help with setting up your new forest school site? Or would you just like a skills refresher before you start your next programme? Whatever your need is, our forest school consultancy service may be able to help!


Who?

Our consultancy service is there to support any professionals working in the forest school or outdoor learning sector, from prospective forest school leaders, to more experienced forest school leaders, to schools that would like to embed more outdoor learning provisions. 


What?

We can offer a range of bespoke support and advice, including:

  • Identifying and setting up your site
  • Preparing for a new forest school programme
  • Skill refresher sessions
  • Providing inspirational ideas
  • Risk Assessment
  • Documentation audits
  • Any other areas you feel you could use support with

Where?

Wherever the consultancy requires us to go. Our services can take place at your own site, or you can visit one of our sites to gain inspiration alongside our advice and support. 


When?

Our consultancy services usually take place within working hours (Mon-Fri, 9am-6pm), however, where possible we will try to be flexible to your needs. 


How much?

Our consultancy prices start at £40 per hour (exc. travel) for face-to face consultancy visits with a 2 hour minimum booking. 

For more informal advice, we can offer remote support at a price of £30 per hour with a 30 minute minimum booking.
