Young carers don't always get the opportunity to put themselves first and just be kids.

Having caring responsibilities for siblings or parents can mean they grow up fast and don't experience the world like their friends might.

An Outward Bound residential can give them time and space to breathe with a well-deserved break. Time to focus on themselves, have fun, build relationships and increase confidence.

Do you have a group of young carers that would benefit from a wild adventure?

Or could you help support groups like this access some much-needed respite?

NEW ENVIRONMENTS

Our residentials are typically 5-day programmes. This gives young people time to adjust to the new environment, switch off from their day-to-day pressures and really immerse themselves in the experience.

Each day is packed with fun and adventurous journeys in the wildest locations of the Scottish Highlands, Snowdonia and Lake District.
