A Platform For

Re-Connecting People With The Great Outdoors

Who We Are

As a signatory of the Mental Health Charter we are actively encouraging people to take up outdoor activities and, to help people on their way, we organise recreational events for people to attend at no cost. The role of sport and recreation in improving mental health is now becoming increasingly clear. The effects of outdoor activities can include stress reduction, improved mood, improved self-esteem and improved health and general well-being.

Walking is an excellent way to improve physical health. The slower pace also allows the more inquisitive walker to take notice of their surroundings, spot wildlife, and identify plant-life and geological features.

All our paddlesport work is undertaken with the sole aim of introducing water based activities for those who may need support with mental health and wellbeing.

Climbing is a really fun way to get in shape, to challenge you, and to meet likeminded people. It’s a sport that can be taken up by people of any age, weight, height, and ability.

We have a number of navigation and map reading training event available throughout the year, delivered in partnership with the Mountain Training Association and led by our professional outdoor instructors – if you would like to increase your outdoor experience and technical knowledge, consider one of our courses.
