We have been working at St Nicholas School in Kenilworth since xxxx delivering our 5 Week in the Wild workshops to over x children – and we have loved it. From starting at Year 6 (age x) then right down to age 4 in Reception. The course is tailored for both KS1 and KS2 althought […]
“Laura helped our daughter over come her lack of self confidence and find her power. We now have techniques we can use at home to help coach her through challenging situations. It was a game changer. Thanks Laura for develop these amazing tools.”
“My daughter loved attending Happy Confident Kids’ sessions. We both learnt some great tools/skills to use when she needs them. It was a brilliant boost of self-esteem, allowing her to explore how she feels and promoting her own self-confidence.”
“Thank you, Laura. You have been wonderful.
I am so happy we found you and will be in touch for a top-up session when we need it. For now, I think ** has the tools he needs to hold his head high at school and at home.”
“I went to see Laura about my XX-year-old daughter, who was suffering terribly with anxiety and stress. I was in a desperate situation; I had no idea whether Laura’s approach would work, but in just two sessions, she was able to turn my daughter around. Working with Laura has helped my daughter to think and feel positive about herself and her environment, giving her the confidence to be her happy, brave self again. Laura worked so hard to plan sessions that were enjoyable and fun, with little added extras, like always following up afterwards, she shows real care. Her service is something special. Laura, I cannot thank you enough.”
“Some really good ideas, I particularly liked the Sound Map, we used this idea on the Boat Museum Open Day the following Saturday, using hoola hoops instead of rope and chalk instead of asking children to find things lying around, we were dealing with family groups with only one or two children of various ages. It worked really well.
The two ladies taking the session were very engaging.
I believe it would be good for people of all ages and also would benefit people who have learning difficulties or dementia.”
“Interactive and engaging.
I really enjoyed learning about the rationale behind aspects of the training and the way it had been put together (the reading of the story etc.)”
As part of the pilot project, funded by People’s Postcode Lottery, we designed wellbeing tools for families which are now live on the Canal & River Trust website, the team at Muddy Publishing did a brilliant job bringing our tools to life, these included: You can access downloads of these here on the Canal & […]
We’ve hit an incredible milestone! What started as an idea—to connect children with nature and wellbeing tools alongside the waterways—has now resulted in training sessions with the amazing Education Team and Volunteers at the Canal & River Trust, who will go out and share these essential tools with children and families across the UK. The […]
At the end of the school holidays we were straight back off holiday to deliver an In the Wild Family session with the Canal & River Trust team (Adrian Royston and Volunteer Paul.) at the amazing Foxton Locks (if you haven’t been its stunning), and launch the new Family Wellbeing Route. The sessions were hosted […]
Glimmers are the tiny moments of joy, warmth, or connection that are easy to miss — but when you start noticing them, everything changes.
Since I started noticing Glimmers, my whole perspective has shifted. It's a game changer!
Nice to feel valued and supported as an individual. We often miss out our own care in the struggle to set up all the many school and group sessions that we run throughout the year.
