Institute of Outdoor Learning
I am now a member of the IOL and involved in the Forest Schools Special Interest Group. I am also working towards the 'Accredited Practitioner' of the IOL which is for experienced practitioners of outdoor learning. The process is a reflective, mentored one involving both self- and peer-assessment leading to accreditation.

National Conference 2007
I was invited to demonstrate fire by friction at the recent National Forest School Conference in Nottingham on October 19th 2007 organised by
I was fortunate enough to be alongside Ian Cresswell from Woodland Survival Crafts, which made for a thoroughly enjoyable day. A 100% success rate with those attempting fire by friction meant that many people left enthused by the possibility of using the skill in their Forest Schools.
The event was concerned with sharing of ideas and also looking at the future of Forest Schools, both in terms of the further development and certification for Practitioners, an association of Forest School Leaders and also guest speakers on a range of topics.
