Schools, Youth Groups & Colleges
Outdoor activities are brilliant fun and get children and young adults enjoying the outdoors! Outdoor adventure sports are a great way to encourage confidence and understand team and group dynamics in the great outdoors! Our youth group activity sessions aim to be energetic but pitched at a level to suit each particular group.
We have provided outdoor activities for Scout Groups, Peer Support Groups, Sport Teams and for Charity Groups such as the NSPCC. We understand that schools and youth groups are often working within tight budgets but also want to give their members a fantastic experience to remember. For this reason we have a specific pricing structure to help things along.
Large Group Pricing
Our Schools, Youth Groups and Colleges prices are based on how many instructors we would require for your group. We recommend a ratio of 1 instructor to every 8 participants but some activities can be stretched to 1:12 - this does however compromise the quality of the experience.
We are a flexible company and are happy to discuss how to achieve any specific aims, location requirements or budgets.
Schools & Youth Groups (75% of the group must be under 18)
- £375 per instructor per day
- £200 per instructor per half day
Examples of activity days suitable for youth groups and college groups:
Taster Day
This is a brilliant day to keep the entire group on the move and motivated, as well as giving them the opportunity to experience a variety of outdoor activities in 1 full day.
Our Taster Day offers the chance to try out Raft Building, Canoeing and a small Climb and Abseil. Each activity lasts 2 hours with a half hour break in between for lunch or a snack. The activities are based in the Coniston area and are within walking distance of each other. All three activities are suitable for children from the age of 8.
Half Day Raft Building
With a youth group of at least 6 people - raft building is fantastic. It involves competition and planning and gets your group working together so it is a brilliant activity for sports groups and scout groups especially.
Raft Building is a ½ day activity (i.e. a morning or an afternoon) that takes place on a lake - we usually use Coniston Water. We provide buoyancy aids and helmets as well as all the equipment required to create a raft(s) and test its prowess on the water through races, tugs of war etc. It is great fun!
Half Day Gorge Walk
Youth Groups love Gorge Walking as it gives the whole group a chance to get involved and really enjoy themselves. Each challenge throughout the gorge is optional so it is accessible to everyone and we aim to get each member of the group doing a challenge that they wouldn't normally do, so that they go home feeling proud of what they achieved!
Our Gorge Walks take you up a steep sided beck and involve walking in the path of the water and scrambling over rocks with the
options of jumping into pools and climbing up and swimming under waterfalls. You will definitely have lots of fun and can, if you
choose to, get very wet.
We have a number of Gorge Walks for all ages and abilities; please ask us what would be the most suitable for your group.
Youth Group Activity Booking Information
We have easy payment and group info systems, can provide youth groups packed lunches, help source appropriate accommodation and give any other advice to make the ‘organiser’ job that bit easier. We also send full kit lists and detailed directions in advance.
If your youth or school group is large and happy to split up and experience activities separately, we can simply provide a range of our activities over the day or weekend after finding your groups preferences and you can all meet for a catch up at lunch.
We are registered Adventure Activities Licensing Service (AALS) providers on behalf of the HSE and we can send certificates for this and our Public Liability Insurance to groups that require this when booking.
