The Team

Michelle - East Kent Coordinator

Forest School Trainee Leader

I am a director of Step-Out and my love for all things outdoors and nature combined with working with children and adults started me on my Forest School Journey.   I worked in a local infant school as a Forest School assistant and Leader for three years before moving to Step-Out.  I enjoy supporting people, both young and old, on their voyage of self-discovery through nature programs.

Emma

Forest School Leader

I am a director of Step-Out and have worked in environmental education for 7 years and love sharing my passion for  nature, food and the outdoors with others!

I enjoy supporting people through their journeys using nature to change and improve their wellbeing and education. I believe the outdoors should be fully accessible and enjoyed by all, and here at Step-Out we thrive on achieving just that!

Marya

Counsellor & Forest School Leader

Following my lifelong love of the outdoors, I joined Step-Out and have never looked back.  I am passionate about what i do at Step-Out and work in a person centred way. I am keen to pass on my forest school knowledge to others through the nature awareness activities we offer.

Vanessa

Forest School Trainee Leader

I too prefer being outdoors and get my energy from being amongst nature. I most enjoy learning bushcraft skills and passing this knowledge on to others. I am also a fan of natural crafts and am rather handy with a whittling knife!
