Overnight trip to educational farm in Somerset
"We enjoyed the community aspect [of the sessions], very social and collective. It felt so good to clean our community and get green!…boys feel free, whilst being completely engaged… It's easy for me to manage my twins in this setting as it gave them plenty of space. They loved getting to know others of different ages. The mood of my children and I was always significantly higher after attending a session…a highlight of our week…boys love the healthy fruit snack at the end too!"

“[Our children] want to be first in line [to use tools] - we would never think how to involve them in using tools in the way that Douglas does so they learn loads and like to be trusted to learn new skills.They also enjoy helping to improve the park/wood…There is also a really collaborative atmosphere in the group; people help each other... it is warm and respectful.”
