Our Forest Skills Groups

We began running a series of these Forest Skills workshops in Craigmillar Castle Woodland between 2014 and 2015 with more sessions in 2016.
This gave BIG the opportunity to expand our activities to include working within the local woodland and provide a unique and valuable experience for the young people involved.
