Welcome to West Coast OWL Group

West Coast OWL “hatched” in January 2021 with expertise in Forest School practice, child rights and safeguarding, outdoor learning and wellbeing, support for vulnerable adults, Forest Bathing, philosophy of education, arts and community engagement.

We welcome participation from anyone with an interest in time spent out of doors, especially in and around woodlands supporting and promoting physical, mental and social health, wellbeing and learning.

Our group comprises members from Lochalsh, Skye and Wester Ross and we aim to offer activities throughout this area.

Our 2025 aims include:

Establishing a network for outdoor and woodland learning practitioners and projects. Sharing good practice and forming an Outdoor and Woodland Learning Community.
Working with schools and youth organisations to support opportunities for outdoor and woodland learning for children and young people
Working with local and regional organisations to support opportunities for inclusive outdoor and woodland wellbeing for the wider population, including adults and families.
Networking with neighbouring OWL groups,
Co-creating and collaborating on future plans with our West Coast OWL Community
