**ABOUT THE BUSHCRAFT COMPANY**:
We provide real outdoor adventures for children aged 7-18 years old from May to October.

It’s a long day but a fun one - you’ll need plenty of enthusiasm, energy and passion, ensuring the students leave having enjoyed the experience of outdoor cooking and trying new foods
