BBC: Ancient wood opens to walkers

[Justin Time]

"An ancient woodland - which provides a backdrop for a string of Bronze Age forts - is in the frontline in a new rural regeneration programme.
Long Wood, near Lampeter, is being opened up to walkers and horse riders in an aim to boost the local economy"

Most encouraging bit:
""We aim to establish a permanent site within the woodland where children and other groups will be able to experience the forest, learn about bushcraft and develop lifeskills," said community group chairman Philip Swain."

I see it also mentions expanding the school curriculum to include outdoor skills, this isn't just in wales as I am dealing with several schools who are forming bushcraft clubs!

For the kids the futures looking bright!
