BIRNBECK INSURANCE SERVICES
Weston-super-Mare
Specialty: Forest School
The concept of the Forest School, which started in the UK in the 1990s, offers educational and health benefits and non-traditional exposures for students and educators alike. “We painted trees with water, pretended to be birds, and watched slugs and snails making their slow way around the woods,” recounts one educator who helped a child out of her self-induced silence. Sounds safe enough, but wherever people’s children are in the care of others, liability insurance will be sorely needed, and that’s why Birnbeck offers Forest School liability insurance. Alongside this offering, the company also has covers for other related activities, such as land and woodland maintenance, conservation management, and beach school.
