We all know that animals and plants contribute to every part of our lives and ensure our very survival. In this collection we celebrate times where we give something back, caring for wild animals and generating plant life.
Working With Animals
We have been working with animals for over 30,000 years and that special bond is only strengthening. Work alongside a Keeper or Farmer and learn to care for animals such as Tigers and big cats, Goats and Ponies or Birds of Prey. You feel privileged to get to know them individually.
We British love our gardens and it’s a passion that dates back through history. This is an opportunity to work alongside professional gardeners in some of the UK’s finest gardens. Explore famous historical houses and their gardens to learn new skills and discover rare plants from all over the world.
The word ‘Craft’ comes from the Middle English word for ‘strength’ or ‘skill’. Gain new strengths and skills by creating your own design metal work or wooden items for your home. Learn from traditional Blacksmiths or Wood Carvers to make beautiful objects by hand.
Farm animals give us so much, whether it’s clothing, food and transport or companionship and devotion. If you’re looking to own farm animals such as Goats, Ponies, Sheep and Cattle or just want to get to know them better - this bundle is for you.
People have been making objects from wood from the earliest times and wood is still an important material today. Learn the joy and skill of carpentry, green woodworking or carving and create beautiful items for your home, whether it’s stools, chairs or cabinets or spoons using Nordic tools and techniques.
You’re in decent shape and your phone has GPS but what happens if you’re injured or stranded and the batteries die? A chance to learn some key life skills if you find yourself without that digital crutch. We can survive up to six weeks without food but water and shelter are far more important. Learn these and other key survival skills.
Apex predators are animals at the top of their food chains with only humans as predators. Get close to and work with stunningly beautiful predators such as Tigers - amongst the most magnificent and endangered animals on Earth and walk with majestic birds of prey.
As an Island we are fortunate to have extraordinary coastal experiences. Did you know Britain’s coasts are the best places in the world for being calm enough to see amazing wildlife? You can experience this for yourself as you explore the coast on a Powerboat, scramble along it with Coasteering and ride high with the Surf.
