Lymley Wood is a Community Interest Company, re investing back into the venue to help disadvantaged or vulnerable children access the provision. Our site is based in an ancient woodland and meadow and is designed with children and young people in mind. Our staff are experienced teachers, youth workers and forest school leaders. We know that spending time in nature has Transformative Power and we insist on the venue being screen and phone free to help enable connection to the natural world. We give the children new experiences and promoting a You Can Do It attitude. Our 3 acre site is private, secure, very beautiful and non threatening and our highly experienced staff encourage adventure, trying new things and learning new skills. We only have one school group at any time providing a very safe exclusive access environment.
We embrace Reflection Time after activities and at the end of day around the campfire where positive reinforcement and peer praise is encouraged. Your children will make memories, laugh a lot and have amazing things to tell families that they have achieved after a stay at Lymley Wood.
