Survival Camp
The Wild Edge survival camp is a great way to learn an array of exciting new skills, along with the chance to make new friends while working through each challenge.
The days will start with an intro from all of us at Wild Edge, going through the challenges that lie ahead. Explaining who will be taking you for archery, woodland challenge and the new quest challenge for example. This will be combined through the day with hot and cold drinks and lunch.
