Forest and Outdoor Learning Award

Everyone's journey starts somewhere.

Whether you're looking to connect with nature, learn new skills, meet new people or explore new opportunities, Big Wild Life offers a welcoming place to begin.

Learning through doing is at the heart of Big Wild Life.

We provide opportunities to develop practical, personal and transferable skills through real experiences, environmental action, community projects and outdoor learning.

We believe everyone should have access to learning opportunities that recognise their achievements.

Big Wild Life supports people to work towards accredited learning and qualifications, helping them gain recognition for their skills, knowledge and experience.

Leadership begins with confidence, participation and a willingness to make a difference. We support people to develop the skills needed to lead projects, activities and positive change.

Every journey is unique. Big Wild Life helps people explore future pathways into volunteering, further learning, employment, enterprise and community leadership.
