new futures academy
London
The New Futures Academy is a community based education initiative. Our work
focuses on learning from nature through practical skills, creativity and
personal development. We aim to provide young people and diverse communities
with the practical skills, inspiration and knowledge to create climate and
ecological solutions, whilst nurturing and enhancing their own sense of
wellbeing...and of course, having fun and enjoying being outdoors! Location Most
of our activities are based at Little Barton: a beautiful 24 acre site in
Littlehempston, South Devon, overlooking the River Dart. Little Barton is an
exciting new permaculture project, which we will be helping the landowners to
develop as part of our learning activities, such as: establishing a large forest
garden and nut orchard, perennial and annual vegetable beds, cut flower beds, a
wildflower meadow, a wild woodland and much more... We also occasionally offer
training and events at other inspiring locations, and can deliver bespoke
courses and workshops at a location of you choice by arrangement.
