Warwickshire

… you would like to start a small group.

Hi folks, I am in my late forties, not as fit as I would like to be, but have developed a keen interest in what seems to be becoming quite a trend with old time campers, such as myself.

I would like to discuss, learn, and practice some basic bush craft skills with like minded people. In a safe, and relaxed environment.

Having just lit my first camp fire without matches, and awaiting my new Kelly Kettle, I feel that Bear Grylls and Ray Mears had better watch their 6! If only!!!

In all seriousness, if you would like to meet for a pint, and consider treking into the woodland with me, on a semi-regular bases, with a length of paracord, and a sharp knife, then please drop me a line.

Wiltshire

Hello All,

I would like to get together with other like minded people in the Wiltshire area to share knowledge and experience about bushcraft. In particular if anyone knows of any freindly farmers that would allow some bushcraft activities in his woods then please let me know.

Walk Softly.

Hope your having fun exploring the forests now they are really comming alive with life…

The community around this blog seems to be building quicker than I thought it would…

I have had quite a few requests for help finding local groups who discuss and practice Bushcraft & Survival Skills…

So I wondered how I might get you all in contact with each other without giving out any personal emails, some sites have a list of links to other sites but iunless you have a web site that no use to you…

And I don’t like the idea of putting up personal emails on a web page either unless you set one up especially for the group…

Anyway, althoughI’m not super technical I do have enough knowledge to put up a simple Forum…

Please excuse any bugs or glitches you find with it as I said my Technical Knowledge is limited as far as the web is concerned…

So you can click the link below and a new window should open with the forum. (please tell me if I messed something up and it doesn’t work right.. )

There is a partial list of areas in the UK where people might live and want to meet. I will add the other areas as I get time…

If your areas not there just send me a personal message on the forum (username: juliandrummond) or click on Ask A Question and submit a request from there, or even leave a comment to this post, what ever works for you…

http://huntergathererschool.com/groups/

The forum has a few post about how to register, how to post a topic, and how to contact other members…

If you have a group running let the other members know…

If you want to join a group post a new topic asking for information about groups in that area…

Their is a single General Discussion so if you want to start a conversation start a new topic, and if its useful I’ll add new topic areas…

But for now I set this up to help you connect with other likeminded people in your local area…

Take Care & Walk in Awareness…
