Cabin Feva at the Old Park Plantation

Our project will create a learning zone, picnic and workshop area and bring water and electricity into our woodland where members of the community will be able to learn, play, relax and enjoy the benefits of our native woodland. The picnic area will lead to our Willow and Hazel coppice where anyone will be able to learn traditional countryside skills and crafts.

The Learning zone will be in the woodland and have three wooden cabins in keeping with our woodland, hand washing facilities, electricity and water. Currently our site doesn’t have water or electricity. We work heavily with the probation service offering courses in conservation and countryside skills and with community groups including the Peter Pan Nursery and Forest Schools Programme. This project is essential to help protect our vulnerable groups from inclement weather and provide accessible learning facility’s allowing more people to learn new skills.

If we were to win the £60,000 a very diverse group of people from all walks of life and with varied ability’s will benefit and be able to learn new skills, experience new activities and meet likeminded people.
