​Working with nature
to fire spirits,
kindle community
​and foster well-being

Picture
Neroche Woodlanders is a social enterprise based at Young Wood, one hundred acres of magical and beautiful forest on the edge of the Blackdown Hills near Taunton in Somerset.  
​

Young Wood is a wild, inspiring place where nature is our setting, our muse and our guide.  We work with that nature to improve people's lives, while making the woods richer for wildlife. 

We encourage children, young people, adults, families and organisations to learn about the nature around them, to find their own place in the world, to build connections with others and to experience a deeper connection with their own wild nature.

Through all of this we aim to celebrate the beauty and diversity of this Earth and to do our part to help care for it.

​"Your work is inspirational and such a good example of diverse partners coming together and innovating in the care and support of vulnerable people.  Hugely down to your energy and commitment I’m sure.  It’s been a pleasure to learn about you and I wish you the very best for Neroche Woodlanders and all who sail in her."

​What a wonderful 3 hours with such incredible facilitators, volunteers and 4 other families. It’s such a gift to access a few moments to have ‘normal’ conversations with other adults around the camp fire knowing all the children are Safe with the ‘yes space’ along with brilliant creative thinking meaning you can really relax.

Happy New Year !! 


At last 2021 has arrived along with some very welcome cold weather and a not so welcome third Lockdown.  We are adjusting our activities and services, and doing our planning for the year ahead. We are being hopeful and rooted deeply in the woods.  We are now in the time of year when the energy of growing things is emerging - with the turn of the seasons the energy is coming up. So it's time to think ahead.... a long time ahead. To plan for the next 10 years and think how our actions will impact positively on the Earth and her beings for the next seven generations.
