Family Survival Course - East Lothian
A 24-Hour Woodland Experience for Parents and Children. The Family Survival Course is a carefully designed overnight woodland experience designed for families who want more than a day out—and less than a long immersion. Set over 24 hours, it offers a measured introduction to living outdoors together, combining practical bushcraft skills with shared challenge, comfort, and reflection.
This is not a high-adrenaline survival challenge, nor a children’s activity session adapted for adults. It is a composed, confidence-building experience in which parents and children learn side by side, guided by highly experienced instructors and supported by a calm, well-structured environment.
The emphasis throughout is on capability rather than endurance, and on creating an experience that feels purposeful, reassuring, and quietly memorable.
Delivered during the school holidays in the warmer months from April to September, the course runs at selected woodland venues in Oxfordshire, Derbyshire, and East Lothian, offering families across the UK the opportunity to take part.
The Family Survival Course is suitable for families with children aged 8 and above. Younger children may be considered on a case-by-case basis following discussion with the instructional team so simply give us a call to discuss.
Parents are fully involved throughout the experience. This is not a drop-off course, nor one where adults observe from the edges. The learning, responsibility, and achievement are shared.
To support families attending together, a group booking saving is available. When booking four places and paying in full, families receive a £50 reduction using the code MAKEMEMORIES.
