We had a great time at the Nuclear Races event in Brentwood. The event was well organised with friendly staff, good quality food/ drink trucks and a fun course that catered for all ability levels. Would definitely recommend!

My daughter had her 11th birthday party here yesterday. What a fabulous day she and her group of friends had!
From start to finish, Sam organised our party so efficiently and was a fantastic host and guide around the Wild Forest obstacle course. She made the day fun and exciting, was enthusiastic and took great care of every child on the course getting them all involved and enjoying every moment. Mud, splashing and laughs all round for my daughter and her friends. They all had an absolutely amazing time!

Bringing Music Mudder to a new venue was a significant step for us, and your support, experience and commitment throughout the planning and delivery gave us real confidence. From the preparation behind the scenes to the welcome and support on the day, the Wild Forest team played an essential part in bringing the event to life.
Around 400 people from teams across the music industry took part, supported by approximately 200 colleagues from across our organisation who participated or volunteered. We have already raised more than £54,000 for Nordoff & Robbins, and we expect the final total to be close to £60,000 once the remaining fundraising and raffle proceeds have come in.
The feedback has been fantastic. People loved the course, the setting and the atmosphere, and we have heard repeatedly what a brilliant experience it was for both team building and supporting such an important cause.
I also know that an event of this scale creates plenty of challenges and moving parts behind the scenes. The flexibility, practical support and positive approach shown by you and your team made a huge difference, and I am extremely grateful for the way you worked alongside us at every stage.
Music Mudder has now raised more than £350,000 for Nordoff & Robbins since 2019, and this year has given us a brilliant platform to build from. We are already excited about what we might achieve together in 2027.

What a fabulous day! It went without a hitch and everyone had an incredible time! You and the team were amazing, your support and organisation all the way through has been top notch, from an events perspective I have not had to worry about a thing, you are a powerhouse lady! You take everything in your stride and you are on top of everything, it really has been a pleasure working with you on this, from start to finish! I think we are at about £3,400 total fundraising which is fab!

Unbeatable Organisation, Unforgettable Fun
I couldn’t recommend Nuclear Wild Forest enough! We took 240 year 7 students and all the students LOVED the experience! It was great to see all the students really getting stuck in and using great teamwork to complete all the activities! The organisation from the Wild Forest team is amazing, getting all students involved even if they are feeling slightly nervous. The students really enjoyed all the activities, especially the water ones! It was a great time had by all!

This was our 4th consecutive year
This was our 4th consecutive year of taking all our Year 7s to Wild Forest and yet again it did not disappoint. We took just over 230 students to the Wild Forest with the aim to spend time with their new tutors and to build on their early friendships they have made. Sam makes the organisation so easy for us as a school and this is one of the reasons that I keep bringing back our students. Her team of staff we have got to know over the years and student safety and enjoyment is their priority at all times. There has been improvements in the provision of indoor space to have lunch afterwards which has really helped if the weather is rainy. Recently we have had older students talk about their best times at Mayflower and this trip is always featured in their highlights, the photos of their faces speaks for themselves!
