Welcome to Sorbus Environmental Community Interest Company

About Us

We are a Community Interest Company based in the beautiful West Highlands of Scotland.

Our aim is simple ~ to get EVERYONE from tiny tots to golden oldies enjoying the benefits of being in the outdoors.

We cover all aspects of environmental education and for all schools, we can link our activities into the Curriculum for Excellence.

We are also passionate about using the outdoors as a tool to improving mental health welfare and as a way of relaxing and unwinding.

If you think we can help you, or have any queries then please do not hesitate to contact us.  We would love to hear from you.

What We Offer

We offer a wide variety of Environmental Education topics which can easily link into the Curriculum for Excellence.  Activities can include lessons such as pond dipping or mini-beasts.  We can also offer Forest Schools or short taster sessions for anyone who would like to know more.

Clubs/Organisations

We offer day activities based on the Forest School ethos of building confidence and self-esteem in a fun, outdoor setting.

If your club or organisation would like to discuss either single days or weekly, then get in touch.

Woodland Therapy

In this age of stress, we believe that being in the outdoors can be of huge benefit for both mental and physical health.  Our Woodland therapy sessions are relaxed and informal and can be tailored to any age or ability.  Typically, we would go for short walk before cooking and sharing lunch over a campfire.

Training

We offer short training sessions designed especially for helping teachers or play leaders take the leap from the classroom to letting children play safely and confidently in the outdoors.  We offer ideas for games or activities and cover practicalities.

Workshops are 1/2 day and are offered throughout the year.  Look out for dates for 2018.
