<p>Interestingly, in Scotland The Places Project is happening. This has a zero budget yet educators, local authorities and partner organisations who are interested in, and passionate about learning outside are all voluntarily participating.

And the work is play for mortal stakes, <br />
Is the deed ever really done <br />
For Heaven and the future's sakes.<br />
