Forest Skills Hub
Forest Skills Hub is a provision for children and young people to explore the neutral environment and all it has to offer
Welcome to nature, a relaxing and nurturing environment, that provides an area for Forest Skills.
The Outdoors can be used for climbing, exploring, den-making, foraging, gardening, wildlife exploration, and so much more! We have a huge collection of outdoor resources at our disposal.
In the future, we aim to give something back to the community by growing and providing fresh, organic fruit and vegetables to local food banks and students families.
Our Forest Skills practitioners run groups and 1-1 support packages for those 0 - 25 years.

Forest Skills Practitioner
Hi I am Emma. I am passionate about spending quality time with my family and we share many interests together. I have shown my children how to grow their own vegetables and then we enjoy trying out new recipes with our homegrown produce. I enjoy going to music concerts, camping and walking our dog(Fred) exploring the countryside and I love all forms of art and crafting.
When I need to take time to relax and treat myself to some self-care I like to listen to music, draw or curl up on the couch and watch a good movie. I have great motivation to work at Life Skills Hub to help support young people to develop and improve their social and emotional well-being. I am a friendly, positive person with a nurturing nature and take great pride in helping others. At school I was bullied and suffered emotionally because of this, there was no support for me at this time so I learnt to be very resilient and create a successful, happy life for myself and my children and I like to share my skills and knowledge and life experiences to help others.
I have experience working with young people across a wide age range as a qualified teaching assistant, I have worked with full school classes, small groups and 1-1 delivering support for social and emotional needs including anxiety and attachment difficulties along with other special needs. Previous to that I qualified as a horse-riding instructor and taught children and adults and RDA (riding for the disabled). I have always found working with young people very rewarding.
