The Kevin Jenkins OBE Outdoor Learning Centre
Connecting With Nature
In 2022, we were gifted an abandoned mature woodland adjacent to our Glyn Hopkin Abbey Hub centre in Stratford, for an initial 10 year period by landowners and supporter Thames Water.
They responded to our plans to transform the space into a unique and exciting outdoor learning and adventure space for disadvantaged children, young people and families residing in Newham.
We currently offer the following activities at our Kevin Jenkins OBE Outdoor Learning Centre, with more to come in the future:
Woodland Warriors an after school club for 5 to 11 year olds
School workshops for primary and secondary ages
