Working with nature
|
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."

Coming back to the woods
Now it's September things are getting busy in the woods. And we are good at social distancing of course, as there is plenty of space. We adhere to Government guidelines and update our Covid risk assessment at least each month.
We have opportunities for Team Days in the woods through Sept, October and November, so get in touch if you need a compassionate and wild space for your team to reconnect and feel safe. We can facilitate deep conversations, help people think about climate impacts or just create a welcoming space for connection. With campfire and hearty veggie food.
Young Saplings is starting again, runs from Sept 4th.
The NEW Wild Explorers project for Families will start with woodland sessions on October 2nd
And Neroche Conservation Volunteers are continuing to meet on Wednesdays, in the woods and on other locations.
