As one of the UK’s foremost funders and providers of Outdoor Learning, The Ernest Cook Trust helps disadvantaged children and young people, their families and communities forge lasting connections with nature. We do this by working collaboratively with like-minded organisations who share our passion for the outdoors. Working with educators and influencers at all levels, we advocate the benefits of Outdoor Learning with a view to embedding it in the school curriculum and beyond.
We aim to improve children and young people’s nature connectedness, health and wellbeing, learning and skills, and environmental stewardship through unique Outdoor Learning approaches. We do this on and beyond our own land and in partnerships and collaborations with like-minded organisations
