We are Wild Embers ,

We need your help to create brighter futures for children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) in South Devon.

At Wild Embers, we specialise in offering therapeutic, nature-based support to children with SEND and Social, Emotional, and Mental Health (SEMH) challenges. Our programmes, delivered by a team with over 40 years of combined experience, empower children to overcome barriers, build resilience, and thrive. We’ve seen remarkable transformations in mental wellbeing, physical health, and social skills—but there is so much more to do.

Right now, families are facing extraordinary challenges:

  • Child poverty and health inequalities
  • Anxiety, depression, trauma and suicidal ideation in children as young as five
  • Long waiting lists for mental health and SEND services
  • A lack of outdoor learning and free-play opportunities

The demand for our services is growing, and we are determined to meet it. That’s why we’re launching an Emergency Access Fund, ensuring that when a parent reaches out for urgent help, our answer can always be YES.

In Devon, where the need for SEND support is higher than anywhere else in the UK, children and their families are waiting far too long for the help they need. With your donation, we can provide:

  • Tailored 1:1 and group support at our forest school sites
  • Immediate intervention for children in crisis
  • A chance for every child to experience the healing power of nature

Every pound donated helps us break down barriers and build a brighter future. Together, we can deliver life-changing outcomes for children and families who need us the most:

  • Increased independence and social skills
  • Strengthened family ties
  • Improved mental and physical well-being

Your generosity directly funds the Emergency Access Fund, ensuring children in need get the support they deserve without delay.

Please join us in this critical mission. Your donation today could transform a child’s life tomorrow.
