Instructor

Charly Crump

I work on the Local Schools Nature Grant project for the Northern Region so have the joyful job of zooming around the North of England to see lots of different schools and settings. The thing that I love the most about this project is the fantastic teachers I meet along the way who often teach me as much as I teach them. I deliver training in all aspects of outdoor learning from fire lighting to gardening and how to use sticks for rich outdoor learning!
