Our Level 3 Certificate in Forest School First Aid is a 16 hour qualification delivered over 2 days. It is specifically designed for forest school practitioners and meets the requirements of the HSE, Forest School training providers, and many outdoor national governing body awards. It blends paediatric first aid course and outdoor first aid course to ensure that the candidate can deal with a wide variety of incidents. Upon successful completion the candidate will be presented with a Level 3 Certificate in Forest School First Aid (RQF).

The course will be delivered within the Forest School Site at West Stow Anglo-Saxon Village. Each day will begin at 10am. You will need change for the car park (£2 per day), unless you are an annual heritage ticket holder for West Stow. The reception at West Stow will have a list of names of participants, so please check in upon arrival. 

There is access to a toilet immediately next to the site (accessible), and there are further toilets next to the car park and in the cafe. The cafe is immediately next to the visitor's centre if you would like to purchase your lunch, otherwise you may bring a packed lunch with you. Food and drink must only be eaten within the Forest School site or outside of the Anglo-Saxon Village.

​The course will be delivered outdoors, but there will be access to shelter if the weather is particularly bad. If the weather is bad enough for the park to close, the course will be rearranged for an alternative date. 

This course is available for anyone to attend, not just Forest School Practitioners.

"Some days are just perfect! I was lucky enough to spend yesterday at West Stow with a group of wonderful women lead by Tina Gibbons of The Mind Sanctuary. Tina became a Human Toolbox Practitioner last year and shares with me a fascination for linking ancient wisdoms with modern science. Yesterday Tina lead a Woodland Wellbeing day which involved meditation, mindfulness, walking, laughter, creativity and lots of play and fun! We all came away feeling joyful, nourished and rejuvenated. I can't wait for the next one!"

"From the beautiful space, to the ingenious name tags, the beautiful walk, the utterly delicious lunch, the opportunity to play ... I am filled with gratitude for this lovely day spent with all you gorgeous people. Thank you Tina Gibbons and team - for connection, medicine & beauty xxx "
