Tide

Time to make fire, climb trees, make, explore, forage & cook a delicious lunch together. Two taster days for a year long program of forest school for girls. These days will take place in beautiful woods near the tidal estuary where we can explore, make camp and craft. Sessions will run on the 24th July & 23rd August from 10am -3 pm

The sessions are run by forest school leader’s Naomi Hannam from Creative Roots and Victoria Durfour-cox from Nature and Me (www.natureandme.co.uk).

Naomi is a creative facilitator, artist, forest school practitioner, fire maker, coach and planter of seeds. She has worked in a diverse range of educational settings: from the classroom to leading groups up mountains. From an early age her passion and love of the outdoors found her sleeping under the stars, singing around fires, adventuring with little in her pack and making from only what was in the natural world. It is this creativity, simplicity, awe and wonder that Naomi strives to share and use to empower, connect and build resilience in young people.

Victoria Dufour-Cox is a Forest School leader, Menstrual Cycle Awareness educator and paediatric first aider - who has trained with Alexandra Pope via the Women's Quest apprenticeship in 2017 and is a Journey Of Young Women certified Girls program facilitator. Victoria is passionate about girls receiving support and knowledge allowing them an educated choice and an empowered start on their journey to adulthood. With this work, Victoria is stepping up as a mentor for her community.
