Aims and ethos
Cherry Wood Adventures is an outdoor activities business run by Sarah Wilesmith.
Taking inspiration from the Forest School ethos, and using twenty-five years' experience in outdoor education, Cherry Wood Adventures' ultimate aim is for everyone, young, old and in between to enjoy, love and care for our environment.
Sarah takes the view that you need to be able to recognise the elements of the natural environment to engage with it. Understanding then generates the desire to care for and preserve our Sussex countryside for future generations to enjoy as much as we do.
Cherry Wood Adventures can run bespoke activities and events, for adults as well as children, in addition to those featured on this site.
Take a look at the gallery and reviews of what is on offer.
