Gapforce -

I had a fantastic experience with the 1 week Bushcraft Survival Challenge. The course helped me complete my DofE gold award and I thoroughly enjoyed being challenged out of my comfort zone, learning new team-building skills as well as wilderness and survival skills. The instructors Jade, Will and Gaz were all fantastic; highly professional and adaptable to the group. It was refreshing to have leaders who you can tell are truly passionate about what they do. The food was genuinely really good, and atmosphere really friendly. 100% recommend to anyone looking for an outdoor challenge, to complete their DofE, or to meet new people.

I attended the Bush craft Survival week to complete my Gold DofE residential section. It was an amazing week with a great group of people and friendly, dedicated and enthusiastic course instructors. I highly recommend this course for anyone looking to complete their DofE award or to just get back to nature and learn some new skills. The course program was varied and engaging with attendees encouraged to participate in all activities but not pressured if certain activities are not for you. I enjoyed preparing and trying nettle tea, fried tree bark and pine needle squash. As well as that enjoy learning knife skills, shelter construction, campfire cooking, water collection and filtration and much more. Located in the stunning North York Moors you cannot get a better location to get away from the noise and stress of everyday life and learn a bit more about yourself. Thanks to Will, Jade and Gaz for leading the course and Ben for helping me prepare by promptly answering all my pre joining questions.
