Additional Information


Please note: Refunds are no longer available, but you can still transfer your bookings to another date within that camp. Unfortunately, you cannot transfer your booking to another camp i.e. Easter to Summer camp. We feel that we keep our prices low in comparison to other Forest School companies who charge double and more. The admin of refunding bookings would mean we would have to raise our prices in future.

Our instructors are Forest School trained, have fully enhanced DBS checks, are outdoor first aid trained with an emphasis on child first aid, and are qualified in food safety and catering. All our activities are risk assessed.

Whatever the weather children will need suitable outdoor clothing and appropriate footwear. Waterproof jacket, boots or wellies, long trousers (waterproof trousers are recommended) and long-sleeved tops are required in all weathers due to brambles, nettles and biting insects. Insect repellent and sun cream may be required.

Children do not need to be accompanied at our holiday club. Parental consent form will be emailed to you to bring on the day but we will have spares to fill out if you forget.

Refreshments and snacks provided but please bring a packed lunch.

How to find us: 

Leek: Pickwood (Ballington) Woods, off the Ladydale Estate, Leek ST13 5SB.  
Directions: Enter the Ladydale Estate onto Ashenhurst Way, drive to the very bottom where you'll see a public footpath just before the start of the new housing estate. It will be signposted. We will be waiting to greet you there.

Glossop:
For Holiday Camps ONLY drop off
Gnat Hole Farm, Hague Street , SK13 7PJ (You can access this Hague street pick up point from Whitfield or Derbyshire Level, map below).

Directions: There is NO parking permitted along Chunal Lane or within Gnat Hole Farm (as indicated by the red lines on the map below). Please meet us on Hague Street (before it turns into Kidd Road and then leads to Derbyshire Level). There is a little walled area with a memorial bench inside it. This is situated opposite ‘Lane Ends Farm’. We will place our banners here (so you can spot us easily) and members of our staff will be here to meet your children. We will then walk the children down a public footpath next to this spot, that leads to our ‘upper base camp’.
At pick up time we will all walk together from our base camp to meet parents at the end of the lane for 4pm.
