Practical skills, campfire conversations, and space to grow in confidence
Calm, woodland-based mentoring designed to help young people slow down, reconnect, and strengthen resilience and self-belief.
At Canopy & Campfires, we offer a safe and welcoming space for young people to step away from everyday pressures and find their own rhythm.
Sessions take place in a woodland setting between Rochdale and Bury, where practical skills, creative projects, and campfire conversations create space for trust, reflection, and growth.
Our approach is gentle, consistent, and responsive to each individual, helping them feel grounded in nature while developing the tools and self-belief to navigate life with greater resilience.
