The Experience

The Experience is a unique mix of physical and mental activities, which, when combined with the friendly, professional approach of our staff, provides some of the best outdoor and environmental education in Britain today. Our instructors are able to challenge and enthuse students whatever their physical or academic abilities. The residential experience plays an important role in the development of interpersonal skills, as well as having a positive effect upon self-confidence, self-esteem and both academic and social success. The Experience aims to ensure that students will leave with a better understanding of themselves and others, along with personal experiences which they will value and remember long after they have left.

Planning your visit

In selecting activities for your course, we take several factors into account. It is essential that the programme for a group reflects the aims and objectives of you as a party leader. Age group, time of year, special needs of individuals and the group as a whole, all affect the mix of activities which may be selected. We can guide you in selecting suitable activities that also meet your educational requirements. Any special dietary needs and medical conditions should be communicated at this time.

We are always pleased to welcome teachers to inspect our centres as part of the booking enquiry. If you are unable to visit, we can easily plan over the telephone or by email. Alternatively, a member of our staff can visit your school to discuss your requirements and proposals, meet your senior staff and attend a parents’ evening.
