Barnstondale is an inclusive residential outdoor education and activity centre. Our charity is the only one of its kind in the area and plays an integral part in the offering to young people. A visit to Barnstondale can really make a difference and change our visitors’ perspectives, offering new experiences or overcoming challenges in ways they never thought would be possible. As a charity, it's our mission to make what we do available to as many young people as possible.
The residential experience is a key component to any group and provides opportunities that will stick with you for many years to come. The benefits of residentials are just as relevant to young people with special needs as they are for any other young person.
We are the only centre on Merseyside to provide a wide range of facilities and activities for children with disabilities to enjoy and learn alongside their able-bodied peers.
At Barnstondale, young people discover previously undiscovered skills and aptitudes. Suddenly, they’re able to think quickly and creatively; they collaborate willingly and can see the purpose behind collaboration.
