Sussex Bushcraft Group

Do you enjoy being outdoors, camping, cooking on an open fire? Well come and join us, learn new skills, share skills and enjoy the wonderful Sussex countryside.

Into The Woods Bushcraft  aims to give people access to the outdoors in a safe and friendly way so that they can gain skills and experience in outdoor living and the natural world. Based in Sussex, we have a dedicated site near Horsham where you can enjoy nature and learn new skills.

Bushcraft is a term often used to describe skills that allow us to live comfortably outdoors, using natural resources in a responsible and sustainable manner. Learning and practicing Bushcraft is an empowering experience especially for those of us that spend the majority of our times indoors.

Our group covers things like:

    Basic Bushcraft - Fire lighting, ways of making flame including fire-by-friction, how to get potable water, shelter building, cooking, cordage, etc.

    Living Outdoors - Camping, eating, use of tools, cleaning, basic first aid, etc.

    Camp Craft - spoon carving, bowl carving, whittling, bark use, cordage, etc.

    Navigation - Orienteering, finding your way using various methods; map & compass, GPS and natural navigation

    Conservation - Nature conservation, sustainability, basic woodland management, etc.

    Appreciating Nature - Photography, nature watch, plant and tree identification, tracking, plant and tree uses

Star Citizen UK Meetups

Crawley, P6

Star Citizen UK Meetups

Imagine... you could be whoever you wanted to be... go wherever you wanted to go... and do whatever you wanted to do... Imagine... Star Citizen!

What is your story going to be?

http://youtu.be/lJJ9TcGxhNY

For those of you who don't know, Star Citizen is the upcoming record-breaking, crowd-funded, epic, PC-only, online, space-sim MMO from the creator of the infamous Wing Commander series of PC games, Chris Roberts.

Currently in pre-alpha, it has drawn a huge following, numbering in excess of 1,100,000 fans, of which, over 850,000 have pledged money to the development of the game and secured a slot in the alpha and beta of the game.

Watch the following video (everything you see here is actual game footage!), and then head over to Star Citizen : About the Game to find out all about the game. 

http://youtu.be/xf4zCCjBwOA

The aim of this group is to bring together UK backers of the immensely ambitious Best Damn Space Sim Ever, to meet, chat and generally get to know one another in social surroundings so that we don't all end up being goggle-eyed Billy-no-mates with the social skills of an amoeba...ok some of us will need to get past that point first (yours truly, included!).

So, if you're a backer, and you're in the UK, please register here for updates on meetups and other events hosted or attended by other Star Citizen fans around the UK.

If you're not a backer...get yourself over to the site, pledge $45 and get into the game!  Don't forget to use the Referral Code of STAR-WHGV-DGKB to receive an additional 5000UEC (in game currency) absolutely free!

No meetup in your area?  Why not start one?  Let us know...we're here to help!

We plan on meeting up fairly frequently to bridge the gap between what is becoming a close-knit gaming community and what could be a close group of IRL friends, and members of our facebook group (https://www.facebook.com/groups/UKStarCitizan/) are already participating in regular multiplayer matches in Arena Commander (the first playable module of the full game) as well as socialising in ArcCorp (the first multiplayer planetside city location) and exploring in Port Olisar, Crusader (the first star system in the fledgeling Persistent Universe).

We're open to ideas, but other potential activities could be in-game Star Citizen 'parties' bringing people together on larger ships like the Aegis Dynamics Idris, or a much-mooted Space Pub Crawl (flying from planet to planet, and having a drink in a spaceport bar, before moving on (real life drinking optional...for some, anyway!)) while also hanging out, or playing Star Citizen as a group.

**Surrey and Beyond Ramblers, aka SABRE, keep an eye on our website for all our walks** [www.sabre-walkers.org.uk  ](http://www.sabre-walkers.org.uk) WE ARE OUT WALKING EVERY WEEK - LONG, MEDIUM AND SHORT WALKS IN LOVELY LOCATIONS - not all walks are posted on Meetup so keep an eye on our website. We've been walking since 2011, having grown from an earlier 40+ group.  Now we're an all-age group.  Our 300 members mainly come from Surrey and South West London.  Typically, we have 6 - 20 people on our walks - some trying us out via Meetup, but most from SABRE itself. We're a friendly bunch and always offer a warm welcome to newcomers.  You're welcome to come on three FREE introductory walks before joining as a full, paid-up member of SABRE. SABRE is part of the Ramblers, Britain's premier walking charity. Membership will allow you to come on as many walks as you like with SABRE and 500 other local groups across the UK. Your subscription will also help to safeguard the footpaths and countryside where we all love to walk.  Ramblers membership £41.00 per annum individual membership and £55.00 per annum joint membership, effective 2nd October 2023. We're a charity so, unlike many other Meetup groups, our walk leaders won't ask you for a penny! They lead walks simply to share their love of the countryside and give something back to the group. There's a choice of walks each weekend and often midweek too.  You'll find everything from easy five-milers to much longer hikes.  We also hold socials, long weekends away and walking holidays around the UK and abroad, but you can only see these once you join us!
