We aim to encourage confidence, self-esteem, and provide the opportunity to learn skills, all with an element of fun.

Programmes are tailored to your requirements and you can choose from half-day activities to residential overnight stays.

Our partnership with primary school teachers of year 5 and 6 has enabled us to develop and deliver alternative and educative programmes that reinforce the school curriculum as well as develop the children’s personal development, which enhances their over all well being.

‘The most beneficial effect in the curriculum of the school in the course of the year’
Mr. J Wallace, Head of College Road Primary School

‘This organisation I feel is playing a vital role in offering children the opportunity not only to participate in activities that they would not normally have access to, but it also offers the chance for the children to create and mould their future life skills. These life skills, I believe are essential in creating a sense of belief in our children, so they can achieve whatever goals in life that they can aspire to’
Parent of Pilgrim Primary school pupil
