A TASTE OF THE WILD
FREE TASTER COURSE
Join us at one of our taster courses. Each offers an immersive experience of Outward Bound with a focus on a topical theme:
- Building character and cultural capital. 17-18 October at Ullswater, Lake District
These events are for head and deputy head teachers, educational professionals, apprenticeship providers, and employers who would like to learn first-hand:
- How outdoor learning can build resilience, confidence and self-belief in young people
- How other schools, employers and experts are using the outdoors to amplify learning
- How an Outward Bound residential specifically uses the wilderness to develop the skills needed to thrive in school, at work and in life.
Find out for yourself how the power of learning in the wilderness can help young people discover their own path and achieve more than they ever thought possible.
Good for your wellbeing too.
All food, equipment and accommodation provided free of charge.
