Survival Skills - Learn to Live
Granted, not everyone needs to know how to live off the land like the SAS or Royal Marines might, working behind enemy lines … but a weekend in the wilds is tremendous FUN! And who needs a better excuse to get back to nature than that!?

In all seriousness, as a hill walker would you know what to do if you had to spend the night out waiting for rescue with an injured friend beside you? With your car stuck in a blizzard of snow would you know what to do to keep hypothermia at bay? An understanding of your body’s essential needs, the base principles of what we need to live are paired with the resources that exist around us on these excellent weekend courses. So if you fancy yourself as the next Bear Grylls, Ray Mears or plainly someone that knows how to cope when the least expected happens, read on.
