We live in challenging times but as fathers, sons, brothers, husbands and friends we have the potential to be a force for good in the lives of the people around us by embracing positive masculinity.

Social media, the loneliness epidemic, rise of knife crime etc. Are problems in need of solutions. Yesterday we opened up the discussion on all this and more in our first campfire gathering.

I believe when men have spaces to talk and connect, everyone benefits — families, workplaces, and whole communities.

That’s the idea behind the men’s campfire gathering we are hosting this weekend— a relaxed evening of food, fire, and good company at Warley Woods, Sunday 16 November, 4–6:30/7 pm.

It’s our first event, working to build a community of men focused on growth, purpose and connection.

Join us or share it with someone who’d value the space.

Bushcraft and camping aren't always about the skills; sometimes it's just about focusing on the immediate. Shelter, water, food and warmth all need to be managed and worked on, and at the same time worrying about that project at work or how to fix the broken fence at home becomes less important. Out in the woods, you have things to act on; you can immediately change your circumstances. If you're cold - light a fire, if you're getting wet - put up a shelter.

It can be incredibly freeing to temporarily set aside the worries of the future for the tasks of the present and that is the power of time in the woods.

On Sunday 16th November, we’re getting together at Warley Woods for a men’s campfire evening — good food, hot drinks, and time around the fire with other guys.

It’ll be a relaxed space to meet new people, catch up with familiar faces, and enjoy an evening outdoors.

This gathering also marks the launch of Ember Path CIC, a new community project with a simple vision: to build a community of men that create growth, purpose and connection. Tickets start at £5 (covering food and site costs), with the option to contribute more if you’d like to support the work.

📅 Sunday 16th November
🕓 4–6:30/7pm
📍 Warley Woods (main car park next to the golf pavilion; full details on booking)

Firesteels are a widely used tool in Bushcraft - compact, waterproof and long-lasting.

With a bit of practice and preparation, a small shower of sparks can become a fire to keep you warm, boil water and cook food.

Some of the best things start small and involve lots of struggle and persistence, but then grow into something incredible.

My direction, purpose and masculinity growing up was mostly shaped by what I didn't want to be. I drifted through life, often taking the path of least resistance. It was only later on when I discovered the right books, role models and guidance of other men that I really started to move purposefully towards who I wanted to be.

The goal in setting up Ember Path is to help people find that inner purpose that lights up their life. It's to build a community of men that guide each other in being a positive influence and support to those around them.

If this resonates with you, stick around as we build growth, purpose and connection through the outdoors.

If you are a man who:
- sometimes feels directionless
- struggles to keep in touch with friends
- craves a deeper connection

It's a real struggle, but you're not the only one and you're not alone.

A quiet kind of men’s work is coming.
Stick around. 🔥

Outdoor sessions are an opportunity to step away from the worries and pressures of everyday life and refocus on the simple things.

Instead of worrying about the chores, your project that is due or how to balance the budget, time outdoors is distilled down to staying warm, dry, fed and hydrated.

It's all about turning off that hamster wheel inside.

Welcome to Ember Path. We believe that bushcraft and simply being outdoors is fundamental to well-being and mental health.

The outdoors has the power to change every part of our lives and the deeper our connection, the greater its power is to transform how we think, act and live.

We aim to help people achieve greater well-being and purpose through transformative outdoor experiences, building community, connection and leadership along the way.
