Grow Wild Outreach

Croydon & South London

At Grow Wild Outreach, we know that meaningful learning and personal growth can flourish outside the traditional classroom. For adults and young people in Croydon and across South London, our nature-based programs offer a fresh, hands-on alternative to standard day services and education.

As a leading Alternative Education and Adult Day Service Provider, we specialise in tailored outdoor experiences that spark curiosity, build confidence, and foster a deep connection to the natural world. Every session is carefully designed to meet individual needs and interests, supporting both personal and social development.

Flexible accredited learning 

As an approved AQA provider, we offer learners the opportunity to achieve formal recognition for their progress through the AQA Unit Award Scheme. Learners can build a valuable portfolio of certificates, developing a record of their skills, knowledge, and experience. This flexible approach boosts confidence, engagement, and motivation, supporting progress on their learning journey.
