Back-to-Basics: True Adventure Trips
Our favourite! Focused on simple camping, self-reliance, and adventurous activities, this programme offers a more immersive and authentic outdoor education experience. It’s perfect for students looking to connect with nature and develop practical skills.
If you’re interested in the Back-to-Basics programme, we’d be thrilled to share more details!
Perfect for School Clubs, Rewards Programmes, or Curriculum-Based Activities
Whether you already run a school or youth activity club, or are looking to start one, our team is here to help! Schools increasingly want to offer diverse extracurricular and enrichment opportunities, and we provide something truly different.
We can accommodate programmes of any length, from long-running clubs, weekly sessions during a term, to one-off termly activities. Popular options include Climbing Clubs, Kayaking Clubs, Hiking Groups, and Multi-Activity Adventure Clubs. (Or even First Aid & Water Safety Training Clubs!)
Whether your goal is to help students develop new skills, encourage teamwork, or simply get them outdoors trying something new, we have an activity programme that both you and your students will love!

Not really! We can run these programmes for a wide range of group sizes. However, for cost efficiency, it's best to keep numbers close to multiples of 10, as staffing ratios can make smaller groups more expensive per person.
If you’re unsure whether your group size works, we’re always happy to advise!
Absolutely! We’ll provide a full kit list for you to share with your students so they arrive prepared and ready for adventure!
For most of our adventure programmes, we recommend participants be 12–13 years old or above.
We tailor activities to suit the group’s age, and older students typically get even more out of the experience.
For our ‘True Adventure Trips’, we suggest a minimum age of 14 (Year 9+) to ensure students can fully engage with the independence, responsibility, and skill-building involved
We’re based along the stunning Jurassic Coast in Dorset, with our main locations in and around Swanage. These areas offer perfect conditions for coasteering, kayaking, climbing, and a variety of coastal and land-based activities.
We can also bring some activities to you or to locations closer to your school. Whether you’re looking for coastal adventures or inland training, we deliver unforgettable experiences in some of the UK’s most scenic outdoor learning environments
We regularly run programmes for groups of up to 30, and can scale to 60+ without difficulty. While smaller groups often get a more personalised experience, we’re fully equipped to manage larger cohorts and tailor the programme accordingly.
