If your children love to explore the outdoors, WildTribe is for them. We host children aged 4-12 in our wonderful Forest taking advantage of all the diverse opportunities of the natural world; from cooking on an open fire to whittling, den building, orienteering, wildlife watching, wide games, or just relaxing in a wonderful wild space.
We run the sessions in two groups: one for children predominantly aged 4-7 and one for older children aged 7-12. The staff leading each group devise age appropriate activities and differentiate for the different skills and abilities of older and younger children.
During the early years of their lives many of our trees are covered by a protective guard, which keeps them safe from herbivores, and helps ensure the best conditions for them to grow. After around 10 years it is time for that protective guard to come off, allowing the young tree to grow and develop in the next stage of it's life.
We will be visiting an area of previously planted young woodland, removing tree guards from the trees and then off site, leaving behind nothing but beautiful woodland.
Please wear suitable outdoor footwear, such as walking boots or wellies. For sunny days we recommend suncream and a hat. Please also bring your own work gloves, we recommend builders gloves with a rubber palm. If you do not have your own gloves we are able to provide these. We will provide all the tools and equipment required for this activity.

A volunteering and adventure club for young people aged 12-18. Our Young Foresters have many adventures in the Forest, as well as taking part in a number of forestry and conservation tasks. The club runs on the fourth Saturday of every month.
The Heart of England Forest site Gorcott Hill is a beautiful 62 acre site near Redditch. The site contains semi-natural woodland, hedgerows, grassland and ponds, as well as a vast array of wildlife.
Mini Foresters is our monthly club in the Forest where children can enjoy activities in our wonderful woodland at Gorcott Hill . Each month the activities will change and reflect the seasons, the flora and fauna and the history and geography of the area. Come and join us for fires, dens, tool use, bushcraft skills, wildlife and the odd toasted marshmallow,
The group is intended for families with children between the ages 4-11 and runs on the last Saturday of every month all year round. Our entry ticket includes up to 5 people, at least one of whom is an adult responsible for the group.
