Wyllt: Nature-Based Therapeutic Programmes

Wyllt offers non-residential, nature-based therapeutic programmes for small groups of up to four adults. Each four-day programme integrates psychological principles with wilderness living skills and outdoor experiential activities. The work is grounded, relational, and designed to support wellbeing, resilience, and personal growth through direct engagement with the natural world.

These programmes are suitable for adults seeking a deeper connection with themselves, others, and the land, regardless of previous outdoor experience.
