Commission the Wilderness Foundation UK

We are an award winning charity, creating bespoke interventions and programmes for vulnerable people most at need. We empower them to take control of their life.

Why commission us? 

We support children, young people and adults to:

  • Develop transferable skills
  • Develop decision making skills
  • Build resilience
  • Pathways to employment

We work with young people under 25 in primary and secondary schools, colleges, pupil referral units (and other alternative provisions), universities and informal youth settings. We’re also developing pre-primary programmes.

We work with adults who might be facing a variety of barriers, who might find it difficult to access support or who are having trouble navigating everyday life due to poverty, addiction, disability or mental health concerns.

Our intensive, service led programmes use the beauty and power of nature to help rebuild and transform lives.

BELONGING

Building relationships with family, peers and the environment

INDEPENDENCE
