Nature Wellbeing for Young People

Friday Wellbeing Tribes for Young People

Who it's for

Tribes are available for young people aged 7 to 16 who aren’t currently attending school — whether due to anxiety, other challenges, or simply needing something different. Everyone is welcome, just as they are.

To begin with, young people are invited to attend alongside a parent or guardian, gently building confidence and independence at their own pace. As each tribe becomes more settled, sessions may become just for the young people, with adults dropping off and collecting at the end.

There’s no pressure to follow a set path — each young person is supported in a way that suits their needs, with plenty of space to go at their own speed.

What to Expect

Each session is thoughtfully shaped around the needs and interests of the group, with every activity offered as an invitation — never a requirement.

At the heart of every tribe are our shared values:

I respect myself
I respect others
I respect the environment

These values are gently woven into everything we do.

Sessions typically run for two hours and include outdoor games and movement inspired by nature — from cooperative games to mindful movement and nature-based play — followed by a natural craft or bushcraft activity, and time around the campfire to connect, reflect, and enjoy some refreshments together.

Summer sessions
