If you go down to the woods

A woodland adventure for children from refugee backgrounds

Fences & Frontiers runs monthly trips for children from refugee backgrounds, and their families, giving them the chance to explore London's incredible museums, cultural attractions, and places of natural beauty.

As part of the Urban Tree Festival, Epping Forest Heritage and CPRE have partnered with Fences & Frontiers to explore and uncover the magic of Epping Forest, East London’s iconic woodland.
