Outdoor learning offers young people unparalleled benefits when it comes to physical and mental well-being.  

As leaders in outdoor learning, our team provide opportunities for young people to experience, learn and develop in an unrivalled environment in the New Forest, supporting a young person’s personal, social, and educational development and improving health and environmental awareness. 

Our skilled and dedicated instructors will work with your group to build their confidence through outdoor learning challenges in a safe, accessible environment.  

You can enjoy the beautiful outdoors across our 65-acre site, that’s steeped in history and provides opportunities for everyone to experience something completely new. We help young people to develop life skills, build character and create memories that last a lifetime. Bringing outdoor learning to life.

Challenge by Choice

All of our activities are run with a personal development approach and ‘Challenge by Choice’ means that our instructors ensure that every child works within their own personal ability levels and are encouraged to challenge themselves appropriately. 

It is these experiences that enable them to get involved, grow, and learn.
