Beyond the Wild takes people away from the world and into the wild, leaving behind a world of noise and technology to experience wild camping in private woodland without access to mobile phones, electricity, gas, or running water.
Participants learn how to cook their food over an open fire, how to find and purify water, how to build shelter, and how to make fire by friction. They experience a dependency on the woodland around them which draws them into a oneness with nature and there in the beauty of creation we draw them into an encounter with the beauty of the Creator through opportunities for prayer, daily Mass, youth-led Eucharistic Adoration, catechesis, Sacred Scriptures, and Confession.
In a dynamic, positive, and understandable way we draw parallels between wilderness survival and spiritual survival to teach participants how their faith can survive and thrive beyond the wild.
As well as running Beyond the Wild, Will Hince cares for his son, William, who is 5 years old and has Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease.
Because of William’s care needs and health complications Beyond the Wild is currently focusing on developing resources and delivering talks and workshops rather than courses to carry out its mission.
Through our courses, events, and resources Beyond the Wild has reached out to thousands of people seeking to ignite the fire of divine love in their hearts.
To carry out this great work we depend completely on the generosity of our benefactors and Mission Partners.
You can support Beyond the Wild with a one-off donation or by setting up a Direct Debit.
