Wilderness Explorers Holiday Club
We are an outdoor activity, bushcraft and forest school provider based at Bodenham Arboretum in Kidderminster.
We provide opportunities for everyone, from families and individuals, to schools and corporate groups to get outside for fun and curriculum linked activities.
