ABOUT THE TUTORS

James is the Head Bushcraft Instructor at Woodland Classroom, having worked in environmental education & conservation for over 10 years. James’ approach to teaching  steers his students toward fostering a deeper connection with nature through understanding the landscape around us; “Bushcraft skills are an effective way to do this as we learn how to make use of natural materials and live lightly with the land, whilst also connecting with our own ancient past by seeing the land through the eyes of our ancestors.”

Lea is a qualified Counsellor and Mindfulness in a Woodland Setting practitioner. She is a firm believer in the power of nature to be therapeutic for everyone. Lea is an active forager, passionate about how we can use common plants for both food and medicine. She enjoys making her own tinctures and medicinal remedies for treating common ailments.

ABOUT THE VENUE

Set at the head of the Vale of Clwyd, Coed Talwrn is a privately owned woodland reserve rarely open to the public. This rich and varied landscape weaves together mixed woodland, flowing waterways, open meadow and scrubland, creating a space that feels both wild and deeply cared for.

For over a decade the land has been gently managed using rewilding techniques, allowing nature to lead the way. As a result, biodiversity has flourished; plants, fungi and wildlife now thrive across the site, bringing a real sense of life and abundance to every corner. We are delighted to have been granted special access to this remarkable place for our courses.
