About Us

Our story began on the very door step of the East of the New Forest, ‘Blackwell Bushcraft CIC’ is a Community Interest Company founded in late 2020 to provide accessible Bushcraft lessons to all with a focus on children, teens and families. Being a community Interest Company ensures we are not for profit and for the benefit of the community.

We pledge to be affordable, inclusive and community led where possible.

Blackwell aspires to improve the mental wellbeing amongst the local community (and others) by teaching practical outdoor skills and to make a positive difference without the requirement of modern technology.

We now have sites in Winchester, Fernhurst and Brockenhurst!

We can also host birthdays parties, school residentials and travel to external sites.

Instructors

All of our Lead Instructors are first Aid trained and DBS checked.

We believe and teach the LNT (Leave No Trace) rule. This ensures we can enjoy nature without having a detrimental effect when doing so.
