☔ Waterproof suits and wellies for children who need them most
🌱 More outdoor learning and nature connection
😊 Warm, dry kids who can join in every time

If you are able to, please support today:

Every pound helps us get closer to our goal of kitting out schools across the UK.
Thank you for helping us bring a little more Vitamin Nature into children’s lives.

Sunday daydreaming in Dartmouth 💚

Tucked away in South Devon, this exclusive collection of just 11 luxury 3-bed lodges sits in peaceful countryside with onsite golf and spa, the bustling waterside town of Dartmouth a short drive away and miles of coastal path to explore.

Think tea and toast on your deck, afternoons on golden beaches and evenings wandering the harbour as the sun goes down. Only THREE lodges remain!

If you are already picturing yourself there, head to our website to discover some of the beautiful local walks around Dartmouth and the South West Coast Path, and find out more.

Nature belongs at the heart of childhood. But not every child gets the chance to experience it.

That’s why we’re proud to announce a new partnership between WWF UK and The Outdoor Guide Foundation; coming together to help children access the joy, freedom, and wellbeing that nature brings.

This autumn, we’ve delivered 640 Waterproofs & Wellies kits to schools across the UK, giving more children the chance to step outside, jump in puddles, and explore the natural world, whatever the weather.

Because nature is for everyone. Every day.

And this is just the beginning…

WWF’s goal? To bring a daily dose of Vitamin Nature to 1 million children by 2028 through their brand-new schools programme, Happy By Nature.

Our goal at The Outdoor Guide Foundation? To raise £150,000 in 2026 so we can gift 4,000+ Waterproofs & Wellies kits to state primary schools in the UK.

Let’s make sure no child misses out on the outdoors, rain or shine.

💚 Follow our journey as we grow this partnership.
💚 Share this post to spread the word.

We have a WINNER! 🎉

A huge shout-out to Aiden, the creative star behind the winning design in our Waterproofs & Wellies · Flanci Design Competition!

Chosen by the team at FLANCI, Aiden’s fun, nature-inspired pattern will now go into full production; how amazing is that?! We can’t wait for you all to see it in action soon....we will let you know when they launch!

FLANCI is a brand built on passion, adventure and bold colour, co-founded by Nicky, a woman who’s run over 100 marathons (including the Marathon des Sables!) and Alf, who’s swapped his ultra shoes for golf ones, but still lives life at full pace with their dog Billy.

This entire competition has been about celebrating creativity, the outdoors, and getting children involved in design with a purpose. Thank you to every young artist who entered, you definitely inspired us!

💚 While you’re here, why not pop over to Flanci’s website and take a look at their colourful collection of activewear — there’s a sale on, and it’s not to be missed! 👀
