It was in about September 2022 (check my thoughts in the archives)
that I linked up with our local Forest School and the school leader, Molly. To say I was impressed with what she had created and her passion
would be like saying Mount Everest is a bit of a climb. I was blown away. About six weeks after our first meeting, I went back and asked Molly
to tell me more about the Forest School concept. That chat is the first podcast and from September 2023 Molly joined me full-time on this site.
NOTE: We have not edited any podcasts once they have been upload. However, in some cases, we have, since making
the podcast, made some changes to our programmmes. Please bear this in mind when listening. Thank you.
