Wildlings at Ladderedge Country Park

Staffordshire Wildlife Trust runs a child-led outdoor play session for young children in the woods at Ladderedge Country Park.

Wildlings is an outdoor play group run by Staffordshire Wildlife Trust, following the Forest School ethos of child-led exploration. Children play and explore in the woods with wildplay equipment such as hammocks, mud play and a campfire (weather permitting), with nature guiding the session. Sessions last 90 minutes and run whatever the weather; parents or guardians must stay and are responsible for their children throughout.
