CTTE is well equipped to deliver basic bushcraft and survival training as an introduction to more specialist courses and expedition skills. Our course is based in South Shropshire, close to our base at Kinver and delivered over a 24 hour period. It involves well-pitched instruction and experiential learning in a variety of techniques, including safety in the outdoors, shelter-building, wild food preparation, fire-making and the fauna and flora of the British countryside. The course can be combined with some adventurous challenges in the surrounding woodland. .

Courses for All

Bushcraft courses are based on real situations (there is a consequence to youractions) and they will always have a significant impact on the education and positive development of all who attend.  You will be issued with a 24-hour ration pack and will be required to build your own shelter following instruction and YES! - you will be sleeping in it! The courses are open to all ages and can be used as an element of a larger course of progressive training.  We can deliver training to suit your organisation at a competitive price at a time to suit you.  Prices start at £80 per person for a group (depending on group size) for our 24-hour course.  This price includes the provision of specialist kit and all of the food that you require.   No animals are killed during the Course.  Call us or make contact for more detail.  Register your interest here
