He’s lived off-grid his entire adult life: “ I'd go shopping on horseback” | Tao Wimbush of Lammas Ecovillage

That’s what life is like for the residents living at Lammas Ecovillage.</p><p>💡 Lamas is one of the most famous ecovillages in the world. Only 15 years old and made up of around 20 holdings, it’s a small, off-grid settlement in West Wales. Tao Wimbush has been at Lammas since the very start. He lives a very land-based, practical and seasonal life, squashing the normal “9-5” into half an hour a day.</p><p>💬 Tao has lived off-grid his entire adult life - and at one point living in a straw bale roundhouse in the woods, using horse as his only form of transportation. But now, with Lammas, he’s adopted a slightly less restrictive approach to sustainable living.</p><p>🎧 Learn how to Tao finds fulfilment through a deeper connection with community and the environment.</p><p>👥 Your hosts are Ollie and Philly Guillou.

She couldn’t find the right school - so she built her own! “ Traditional school isn't setting kids up for success in the real world”
<p>⚡ ️Imagine 4-day school weeks, outdoor learning as standard, limited access to devices - and children who want to be at school. This is the dream of Liberty Woodland founder Leanna Barret.</p><p>💡 Many people are questioning whether the traditional school system is really setting their kids up for success - whether sending them away 5 days a week is truly best for them. And while homeschooling rates are increasing, many parents want something that meets somewhere in the middle.</p><p>💬 That’s why we’ve invited Leanna Barret onto the show - she’s the founder and headteacher at Liberty Woodland School, an independent school in South London. After struggling to find the right school for her kids, she decided to set up her own. It has gained a lot of media attention thanks to its unique approach to learning and 4-day week schedule. </p><p>🎧 Learn how children are benefitting from this radical new take on education - but also the challenges that come with stepping outside the norm.</p><p>👥 Your hosts are Ollie and Philly Guillou.
