All our activities take place outdoors, and children will need to come dressed for the weather. We recommend layers that can get muck,y including long sleeves and trousers to protect against scratches and stings, waterproofs and boots, trainers or wellies. Sandals and open-toed shoes are not permitted. In hot and sunny weather, we also recommend sun hats and sun cream. Please note that toilets may be a 5-10 minute walk depending on each site. 


Your child will require a snack, water, and a packed lunch. We are nut-free so please do not include any items containing nuts. All rubbish will need to be returned home with your child. Some sites may have a campfire and toasting suggestions will be sent on booking.


We need a completed consent form for each child attending Wilder Holiday Club. Without this, your child will not be able to attend.
