Objectives

The relief of need, the advancement of education and the organisation of recreational activities with the object of improving the conditions of life for the persons for whom the activities are primarily intended by promoting the development of confidence and resilience in marginalised young people with the development of social skills, co-operation and teamwork through the provision of structured outdoor learning courses. We also work to improve the conditions of life of young carers by providing recreation and educational activities in the form of outdoor learning breaks which provide relief from their caring responsibilities.

Activities

We deliver adventure activity residentials, primarily in the West of Scotland, for groups of young people from across the UK. In addition, we deliver Day and Multi Day Outdoor Adventures in Argyll for individuals or groups of young people primarily from our local community. This year we are delighted to report the return of our Residential Programmes following their cancellation in the prior two years due to the pandemic. Last year we delivered 13 Residential Programmes, largely from Glencoe. With our continued commitment to our Day and Multi-Day Activities, we worked with almost 300 Young People from across the UK.
