🌿 Wild Academy CIC Update 🌿

We’re proud to share a snapshot of the impact we’ve made this term:

💚 3 students supported through full or part-funded placements
⏱️ 145+ volunteer hours dedicated to changing young lives
🏅 3 awards achieved, including ASDAN and a Junior Forestry Award

Every hour, every session, and every achievement represents a step forward for the young people we support , building confidence, resilience, and real-life skills

Thank you to everyone who continues to support our journey. We couldn’t do this without you 🙌

A massive thank you to Illingworth Ingham who supplied us with a generous supply of wood.

This will be used at students at our alternative provision to start woodwork projects and gaining a ASDAN or AQA award.

Will keep you updated on pictures ….

We are really looking forward to working with Nature Beanz Adventures & Alternative Provision this spring to get our community garden back up and ready

We were up this week getting the planters ready and a little spring cleaning !!! 🧹

Wild Academy CIC – End of Year 📊🌿

As we come to the end of the year, we wanted to take a moment to reflect on what has been an incredibly positive and impactful period for Wild Academy CIC.

Thanks to funding, referrals, and the generosity of our supporters:
⭐ 2 students have been fully funded onto courses and are now working towards and gaining recognised awards
⭐ 6 part-funded Home Education sessions have taken place
⭐ A total of 102 hours of education have been delivered — fully funded or part-funded — supporting young people who need alternative, nurturing pathways

None of this would be possible without the continued support, trust, and donations from families, schools, partners and our wider community. Every contribution makes a real difference to the lives of the young people we work with, so thank you. 💚

As we head into the festive season, we’d like to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year 🎄✨

Looking ahead to 2026, the need for our work continues to grow. To keep providing funded and part-funded opportunities, we will be relying on further donations and support in the year ahead. If you’re able to help, whether through funding, referrals, partnerships or sharing our work, we’d be incredibly grateful.

Thank you for believing in Wild Academy CIC and the young people we support. 🌱

So the BIG winner. …….

As we only had a couple of takers for the Christmas tree raffle we decided that it would only be fair to give BOTH a tree 🙌🏻 🙌🏻

So a BiG WELL DONE to Becky and Katie who are the proud owners of our wood cut Christmas trees 🌲

One is on its way right now and the other is in the workshop with the 🧝‍♀️ ready for next week 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
