Residentials for Young People

A residential can be designed to fit your requirements, to incorporate an insight into the importance of teamwork, develop communication and networking skills, develop planning and decision making and to incorporate activities to help the group bond and most importantly have fun.

The team building element will be delivered in an informal, friendly and innovative way, with the emphasis being on JOINING IN AND GETTING INVOLVED. The course is also intended to boost individual's self-confidence and esteem in completing the various elements.

To encourage team spirit we will be keeping people in groups for each activity with a prize at the end of the weekend for the winning team, this will have the effect of bonding the individuals within teams. So if there are youths or individuals from different areas or cultures it would be a good opportunity to mix them up to break down barriers and encourage social interaction.

We are quite used to working with young people from disadvantaged backgrounds and we regularly work with, youth gateway, new deal, youth justice and many community regeneration partnerships, including young carers projects. We also work with many 'blue chip' companies, such as Panasonic, Mars confectionery, Barclays Bank, T-Mobile etc.

A quad biking element can be included, run as a training session highlighting safe driving skills. It is not like go karting, we will not be on a race circuit but it will be a trek through the countryside. The groups will be with qualified instructors emphasising safe distances from the driver in front, suitable gear selection, proper use of steering and accelerator. These skills are transferable to the highway when your young people start driving. This element is used frequently by schools and colleges from all over U.K. and regulars with us are Broadway Youth centre near Perry Barr. The Butetown Youth pavilion, St Mellons C.E.U. Dusty forge project. Amelia Trust. Washwood Heath YIP Etc.

Other activities such as gorge walking, archery, paintballing and a trip on a R.I.B. Speedboat can be included. Residential can also be designed to incorporate tours of the Millennium Stadium and the Welsh Assembly. We can also arrange accommodation, transport and meals (Halal and veggie options available).

All relevant safety equipment is provided for all of our activities.
Opening Times - We are open from dawn to dusk everyday (except Christmas Day).
