Frequently Asked Questions
What makes a first aid kit suitable for Forest School or outdoor learning?
Forest School and outdoor kits need to cover injuries typical of woodland and outdoor environments, such as cuts, grazes, splinters, insect bites, stings and sprains, and be practical to carry to a session rather than fixed to a wall. Our range is built around exactly that, with portable cases and rucksacks rather than bulky wall-mounted boxes.
Are these kits suitable for muddy, wet or uneven outdoor conditions?
Yes, our outdoor and forest school kits use durable, weather-resistant cases and bags designed to hold up to being carried through woodland, fields and other outdoor terrain, rather than delicate cases meant for indoor storage.
Do you have a kit small and light enough to carry on a woodland walk?
Yes, our Playground First Aid Kit in a Riga bum bag is worn around the waist, so leaders can keep it on them at all times during a session without needing to carry a separate bag.
What about longer outdoor sessions or trips further from base?
For longer sessions or trips away from your usual site, our BS8599-1 School Trip Green Rucksack kit offers a larger range of supplies organised across multiple compartments, plus a smaller detachable kit that can be taken separately if a leader needs to break away from the main group.
Do you have kits suitable for early years or nursery-age forest school sessions?
Yes, our Blue Dot Child Minder and Nursery First Aid Kit is stocked with early years settings in mind, including child-appropriate dressings and plasters, and works well alongside our other outdoor kits for mixed-age sessions.
How often should outdoor and forest school kits be checked and restocked?
We'd recommend checking kits before and after each outdoor session, since items like plasters and wipes tend to be used more frequently outdoors, and restocking anything used or expired straight away so the kit is always ready for the next session.
