"Fantastic Leadership Development"
A fantastic leadership development programme, coupled with a bonding experience that will be remembered by all. Not only was the material relevant, the manner in which it was delivered by UKBushcraft was priceless as it flexed to team and individual needs along with points of view in a tranquil setting on the Thames. Bonding was again elevated as we were welcomed at the campsite with an open fire, brew and smiles. This was the highlight of the trip where insight, stories and experiences were shared by the team over a campfire in a safe physical and wellbeing environment. Thoroughly recommend UKBushcraft and this setting for any business looking to develop its colleagues with business insight and goals, along with its application.

"Leadership Event"
I attended a two day Leadership Development event at UKBushcraft in Berkshire, we stayed at a wonderful location on the Banks of the Thames. The event was highly beneficial to myself and my peers and Gareth showed a wealth of business knowledge, strategy and ability to think differently. The two days consisted of exploring a specific business challenge and working through the performance element to achieve the result using different techniques and tools, (I've attended Leadership events before) some of these tools we're unknown to myself and a few I have come across before, that's the positive, Gareth was able to adapt quickly to the conversation in the room helping the candidates get to the point of making robust decisions with the help of some of the exercises we did and the tools we used as well as driving constructive conversations, Leadership through a different lens, performance based thinking and understanding human behaviour, this was extremely evident when we visited the UKbushcraft camp up in the hills, quite a sight when you first arrive to a campfire, a kettle, some carved wood furniture under a forest canopy. This was the point where we all found a common level and opened up to each other about not only the objective but ourselves, no levels, no hierarchy, just a cup of tea out in the woods, It works. I'm already implementing the learnings in my role on daily basis and feel empowered and inspired, thanks to UKbuscraft. Highly recommend this company and course, if you want to explore new ways or even just need a reset... why not do it differently?

"Leadership development"
Had a fantastic couple of days with UKBushcraft in Berkshire. Incredibly relatable content helping to develop business strategy, problem solving, interpersonal skills and leadership. Thoroughly enjoyed the company and the bonus camp fire trip. It was a great way to escape the buzz and take time for reflection and build relationships with colleagues. Expertly thought out and brilliantly executed.

"Developing Leadership"
A two day leadership event in an amazing location in the Coppa Club Hotel and then over to the outdoors with the fire going and wood carved table and chairs has been amazing. It was really insightful, inspiring and enjoyable. I was impressed with the professionalism and knowledge throughout the two days. The content was relatable and thought provoking which has really helped in developing my skills. I would hugely recommend any business to do this as it truly was an remarkable experience.

Leadership event
As part of our two day seminar we were taken by UKBushcraft to their site to bond the team and create an environment of trust. This worked extremally well with great interaction between everyone. We were well cared for with our safety and wellbeing being considered throughout (Not that its an extreme location at all). Would thoroughly recommend this as a different approach to business events breaking the corporate feeling which comes along with most business/company training

"Two top weekends at UKBushcraft"
I have spent a couple of weekends at UKbushcraft The team create a wonderful environment in which you can learn new skills or practice existing skills. I really like the fun supportive atmosphere around the camp it removes any fear of failing or not being good enough at a task, yet. The food is outstanding if Michelin had a camp restaurant section these guys would get a star Camp chef has many easy techniques to make feed time not just about fuelling. Las time I visited we made some camp furniture from fallen trees, I'm looking forwards to going back so we can sit around the table, share food, stories and play some cards.

"Thoroughly enjoyed both trips with UK Bushcraft"
Thoroughly enjoyed my first trip with UK Bushcraft in 2022, so much so that I went back again this year! Very well organised with some great remote locations to hone existing base skills and learn a lot more. Wild camping in stunning, pristine wilderness; fire lighting techniques; water purification; fishing; amazing campfire cooking; and invigorating daily wild swims. The canoe trip in 2022 and a spot of wilderness trekking in 2023 (finding the incredibly useful Chaga and Amadou fungi)) were great additions to the experience. Thoroughly enjoyed both trips!

"Perfect for newbies or seasoned pros, what an experience!!"
This was my second trip with UK Bushcraft and it didn’t disappoint! As a newbie to wild camping and bushcraft, I was slightly apprehensive and a little anxious it has to be said, but from the moment I booked on the first trip, they made sure I had all of the information I needed, answered all of my questions and spent time taking me through each of the skills we learnt patiently and with the utmost safety and diligence. So when I saw a second trip to Sweden with availability, I jumped at the chance to go again!!
Whether you were a newbie or an expert, the instructor tailored his approach to suit the individual and offered expertise to all. I came away having learnt so much more than expected and honing my skills even more covering wood preparation, storage and fire lighting (multiple methods including a bow drill!), camp preparation, tarp designs and setting up sleeping systems, wood carving, orienteering and so much more! The food was out of this world and I ate better than I do at home, something I never expected in the middle of an island hours from civilisation. The instructors created a really great, fun and sociable atmosphere and Sweden was such a beautiful place. I would 100% recommend this trip and any other trip with UK Bushcraft to anyone - whether you are starting out or a seasoned pro, it has something for everyone. Thank you UK Bushcraft!

"I went on the first trip to Sweden in…"
I went on the first trip to Sweden in May 2022 which was excellent.
Really well organised so that all the camping spots and the trip to an island via canoe were all sorted before we got there.
The place is beautiful and there was lots of activities to keep us going for the entire visit.
I wasn’t sure what to expect for food and drinking water but was very pleased with what we learnt about how to collect and purify water to drink. The food is nothing short of outstanding especially being in the middle of the woods is Sweden!
It goes to show what can be done with some thought ahead of time.
Thoroughly recommend booking a trip!
