Welcome to Sisinde Survival Skills:

Your Ultimate Guide to Wilderness Survival

At Sisinde Survival Skills, we believe that anyone can learn the essential skills needed to thrive in the great outdoors. Our mission is to equip you with the knowledge, tools, and confidence to face any survival situation with ease. Whether you're a beginner looking to learn the basics or an experienced adventurer seeking to refine your skills, we've got you covered.

Why Survival Skills?

Survival skills are essential for anyone who ventures into nature, whether for recreation, work, or adventure. These skills not only enhance your outdoor experience but also ensure your safety in unexpected situations. Learning how to find food and water, build shelter, and navigate the wilderness can make the difference between life and death.


Social responsibility

Help us to help others by contributing to our social development projects which are specifically aimed at the youth.  Many kids out there would love to participate in our programmes but cannot afford to.  You can make a difference in the life of a child by funding their camps or workshops.  In the past ten years we have seen the impact that this programme has had on so many kids.


Project 25 is one programme which we have focused on in 2024.  We have identified 25 boys (if the programme is successful we will do one for girls in 2025), who will participate in 5 programmes over the course of 5 months.
