Power access is very limited or non-existent, except for those who may need it for medical or safety reasons. If required, please reach out to us in advance to discuss your needs.

Katie and her team acknowledge the traditional custodians of the land, of the ancestors and elders – past and present, on which her programs take place. Katie would like to especially recognise the elders past and present who she regularly collaborates with in running her programs. This includes elders from the Gumbanyggirr and Yaegl people of the North Coast of NSW and her adopted Yolngu families of North-East Arnhem Land.

Katie and her team acknowledge that survival skills and nature connection practices are a global knowledge bank held by humans from all races and countries. Katie acknowledges her Scottish, Irish, European and Armenian ancestral lineages and their traditional earth-based living skills.

Survival skills and nature connection practices are the original ways of living that once allowed all humans to exist in harmony with the Earth. In today's world, these traditional earth-based skills remain essential — not only for personal resilience but also for fostering a deeper balance with the natural world. By keeping these practices alive, Katie’s programs help ensure a thriving future for the next generations — one that is in alignment with natural laws and supports a sustainable, interconnected way of life.

Katie would like to show her profound respect and love for all Indigenous communities around the world.
