Abandoned on the Solway Coast - Afternoon - Kirkcudbright

Join Ranger Toni and Artist Kirsty Harris on Wednesday the 30th of July at 1pm to test your skills of survival.

Join us for a fun packed survival adventure in a coastal woodland along the Solway Coast! Together we’ll build cosy dens, try fire lighting (if the weather lets us), go on a mini foraging hunt, and learn some simple first aid skills to help friends in need. It's a great way to explore nature, get muddy, and discover what it takes to survive in the wild, all through play and teamwork!

This is session is for children aged 8-12 years old. Children can be left unaccompanied, but parents and guardians are more than welcome to stay and play too! Children will be supervised by 2 Forest School Leaders who are PVG checked. Please note: If your child requires additional support or has behavioural needs, we kindly ask that a parent or carer accompanies them during the session, as we are unable to provide 1:1 support.

These events are led by Dumfries & Galloway Woodlands with funding from the D&G Coastal Benefit Fund and the Solway Coast & Marine Project (SCAMP).
