Summary
Located within Spring Wood in the National Forest, near to Staunton Harold Reservoir, is Woodland Survival Crafts, bushcraft and survival specialists. At this site, you can learn from a range of bushcraft survival courses which will help you fend for yourself should you venture into wilder woods in due course. The different types of courses will appeal to outdoor professionals looking for quality training, educational providers looking to inspire young people, or families or individuals looking to have some fun and reconnect with the great outdoors.
Woodland Survival Crafts was established in 1995 by Dave Watson, following a 10-year career in outdoor activity centres.

Courses include professional outdoor training courses, specialist bushcraft courses, leadership development and team building, and outdoor learning for schools.
